At one time I was a field supervisor with team of 7-10 techs and a territory covering about a third of the city. I actually enjoyed it but my problem was a service manager that made a habit of getting played by techs that were whining about something and changing my orders without talking to me first. I don't work that way. After the third time, I told him he could keep his supervisors job and I'm going back to the field full time.

I kind of like being in charge and I'd take a pay cut if I was to stop being a manager.

Sounds like you should get your butt kisser primed and ready to get yourself moving up the ladder

Considering whose butt would need kissed, I'm good

I wonder if anybody noticed how close I am to my last silver.....

Thanks LJ!

You're welcome (I'm pretty good at taking most hints )

I actually ended up getting a pretty good raise within a couple months of going back to the field. Plus I got to stay on salary instead of hourly. I don't think I worked a full 40 hour week the rest of the time I was there!

I'm still a lot better off where I am now though, otherwise I wouldn't have left.

How were the storms up in the Indy area last night? It got pretty ugly here!

I lost one shingle. A swing landed on the pool cover. All in all not to bad though. Some others got hit a lot worse.

I'm on the South East side. We got tons of rain and some wind but nothing too severe except for the flooding.

I can't get salaried unless I get promoted. I'd probably take it now, knowing what a jump to salary would get me $$. BUT that won't happen so eh ...only way I'm really looking at real advancement would be to sit and wait it out here or jump ship

I'm on the SW side. I slept through it . Only "damage" was thousands of little pink flower petals ALL over my truck

Do I need to step out for a moment?

That's good. We did not have a whole lot of rain but the wind was intense.
