It’s been some time since I’ve posted – things have changed for me in the fact that I now have a full time job as Director of Relocation for Coldwell Banker – Success in Madison, WI. It’s a great group of people in a great city! Occasionally, you’ll start to see some posts here on activities and things going on in Madison, WI. Hope you enjoy the fun!

I was shocked at his answer. This person was a territory manager for large construction equipment.
