Job

So I found a good job with salary + commission and benes! World Wide Medical Services http://www.wwmsi.com/. I'll be marketing "tens units" to chiropractors, orthopedic specialists, therapists, etc. They're portable units that send an electrical shock to alleviate pain. Here's the skinny.

Saw an ad on craigslist looking for DME Reps (that's me!). The ad instructed us to fax the resume, but I noticed the company name in fine print at the bottom. I googled it, found the address, printed a resume, typed a letter and put it all in a folder. When I got there, I realized that it had moved, so I called the office. The woman answered and actually put me through to the owner/manager who was hiring for the position. He gave me the new address and I scored an interview right then and there!

The interview went well, and so did the other two! My new boss decided to hire me even though there was someone that was already selling these units for a different company. Apparently, I was the only one who cold called him for this job and he liked my skills.

My start date is two days after I get back from my vacation out west at the end of this month....which is awesome.

I feel lucky......

www.rejectionhotline.com

Have you ever given out a fake number? Go to this website and find your local rejection hotiline number! Give him that number. There's one for every area code!

Here's the plan: Just save it in your cell phone, like as the letter "a" or something (so you can easily find it). Then whip out your phone and tell the guy that you just got your new phone number and can't remember it or something. Look up the letter "a" and give him this number. http://www.rejectionhotline.com/

Report back to me if you ever use this. I have it saved as the letter "a" in my phone for easy access.

This Band.........

So I've been listening to this band lately. They're called The Darkness. Right, it sounds pretty heavy, but they're not. It's like a modern glam rock and it's completely AWESOME and FUN! The first song is called "Girlfriend". Check his HIGH voice.


You may have heard this second song. It was on the radio a couple of years ago. It's called "I Believe in a Thing Called Love". These videos are out of control and I love it!

Lately.......

So there has been some big cuts in medicare lately. They're directly affecting OUC Medical. My pay has been drastically cut.

No worries though. I still have a job, but I've been interviewing too.

Just accepted a job with Navesys http://navesys.com/ . It's a medical transcription service. That's those little hand-held units that helps doctors dictate their notes. Once they put the unit in the charging dock, it automatically sends the audio files to our call center. We give them a hard copy within 24 hours. I start next week.

I will be working for OUC Medical with my small salary and working commission only for Navesys. Once I start selling the contracts through Navesys, I keep making a monthly commission on the offices still signed up. Ideally, my paycheck will just keep going up.

BUT hold the phones. I was just offered an interview with Everett Pharmaceuticals. www.everettlabs.com . I have an interview on Monday in Lakeland at some fancy hotel. Apparently, this interview lasts from noon to 5pm! WHOA! Wish me luck becuase this is a GREAT job. Buying a new suit this weekend.

I'll keep you all posted if you're curious.
