I’d like to speak the manager!!!

Back in 1907.

I graduated from college.

I think it was 1987 actually.

I moved to Atlanta in September of that year.

I got a job as a telemarketer.

I lasted ten days.

I did take no for an answer.

We were selling the little footballs that get thrown out at sports ball events.

I would call a high school In Arkansas. Ask for the football coach and ask if it was okay to provide these footballs.

A lot of coaches said no because of fear of hurting someone.

A lot said no.

When I finally got a coach to say yes, I’d take the yellow pages and start calling businesses to convince them to sponsor said footballs.

I was not good at this.

And quit after 10 days.

I hated it.

But it led me to my next job.

I’ll tell more tomorrow!
