i am having so much fun. before i left atlanta, i was apprehensive about coming. tuesday morning i wasn't so certain i'd like the guy i was working for. at first impression, i thought he was a bit cold and maybe slightly pushy.
things have definitely changed. i've grown to know both he and his parents, all of which have grown fond of me. the feeling is mutual. mrs. barbara likened me as a member of her family today and kris has told me that i have been the best person he's ever had work for him, describing me as professional, a great salesman and very neat. it's made me feel wonderful.
we were exrtremely busy again today. i've decided that if i have the time and money to invest, i may, myself, have an exhibit here next year. as i've worked today and heard people talk, i've grown quite a few ideas.
travis, another guy who was hired with me, called today. seems he's heard -- although he hasn't been assigned -- that a few of the others have been told they'd begin training november fourth. that'd be alright with me... i'm excited and ready to go.
speaking of which... how weird is this? there was a woman from sale city at my booth today (the second, imagine that!) who asked me how and what i was doing. i explained what i had done since leaving walb, the last she remembered.
to her side, this guy said, "pride of america?" yeah, i said. "oh, i work on that ship."
huh???
yeah... in the middle of 'north america's premier farm show', there is a guy who works on the same ship in which i was just assigned. small world.
i guess i need to, for the reverend's sake, find something bad to do. that damn knighthood and saint stuff is just grinding at his nerves.
damn all of you!

Hi Mathew,
I saw that you have a sex offender in your building and read your write-up back in July. Some of my co-workers and I were looking through the site to see if we knew anyone local! I looked in 30306 (I live in East Atl) because all the queens live there. When I saw this dude I thought...he looks kinda like the "boy next door"!
Did you ever find out if he is dangerous or not? I would be interested in hearing some follow-up to your earlier post.
hey jeff... hope that your zip code was sex-offender free. as for my building, the sex-offender has moved out.
i'm not sure if it was from pressure -- i told everyone i knew who lived there -- or if it was just the end of his lease and he knew he needed to crawl into a hole somewhere.
i'm thankful he's gone. i realize that those creeps, too, have to live somewhere. beside me, however, is not a great spot.
thankfully, the government and citizens alike are demanding that these perverts be held to tighter sentences and more restricted areas in which they may live.
by the way... his offense was aggravated child molestation in arizona.
