A Time For Change…

As many of you know, I have been a store manager for Rent-A-Center for three years.  Working around retail hours can be very draining and my kids know nothing other than their father working a 55 hour workweek.  Tomorrow I put in my resignation with Rent-A-Center to pursue a sales position with Jack’s Wholesale Windows.  (Need new windows?)  I’ll likely send you a letter at some point once I get settled in with the company, however, the nice part of this job is they provide “hot leads” from individuals who call us.  (AKA, no telemarketing!)  The trick could be insurance.  Eli had pretty serious seizures for 9 months which makes him nearly impossible to insure.  We’re praying for a smooth transition and rates that aren’t outrageous.  If you’re a friend of mine that prays I would appreciate you doing so.  The position is 100% commission based which is scary and intriguing at the same time because my entrepreneurial spirit has challenged me to invest in myself.  This gives me a great opportunity.  Jack’s just opened their fourth store, this one in Fort Wayne, and they have a very successful track record.  It’s a welcomed change since my projected workweek is 32-40 hours.  This gives me time to catch up on our rentals and spend time with the boys, and Angie.  I trust that I will live up to Jack’s expectations and that Jack’s will live up to mine.  With that said…do your windows need replaced?!?
