I was staying at the Rio in Vegas during the WSOP final table....

[Iceberg Slim]

Haven't been to Tupelo. Been to Jackson though, different world down there. They didn't have any hilton hotels had to stay in a damn Holiday Inn....

The airport was like two rooms, they had one restaurant, well not really a restaurant more like a sandwich stand......

[Darth Biscuit]

Hell biscuit half the time I am talkin to you I am on the road... :cool:

I'm either sitting in my office, or sitting in my recliner...

I travel every once in a while, but only in the Carolinas...

[SCP]

Well, safe travels sagacious. Perhaps we'll cross paths in an airport.

[Hotsauce]

I just came off the road after 2 yrs. I did 3-4 nights a week. Sucked cause my wife was prego, then the baby came and I had to make a change. Luckily now I'm the MFing boss, so I sit in the office everyday. I do miss staying in my Marriotts every week, I miss my bar tenders at the local bars, I miss getting drunk in the concierge lounge of the hotel with other business execs.

SCP, ever watch the movie Up In The Air?

We probably already have and didn't know it. FWIW next time you pass through Hartsfield...go to D concourse, they have a carribean restaraunt that has the best drinks in the southeast. The bartender doesn't usually use the pour thing and she is extremely generous...safe travels to you too my friend

[pstall]

i turned down some financial advisor jobs simply due to all the travelling. just couldn't with my two kids. of course i probably could have socked away half a mil by now but my girls know me at least.

Hell I can hardly deal with having my wife and daughter away for a couple days much less what you sales guys have to endure. Props to you guys for hanging in there and supporting your families. I have a lot of sympathy for most of the salespeople who call on me as they usually have quite a large territory and obviously don't get to spend much time with loved ones.

I grew up and have known the kid who finished in third(Jake Balsiger) for about 10 years. It's funny, we all learned how to play poker together and there he was at the final table at the WSOP. Crazy.

[Mother Grabber]

I've been in Vegas all week at a conference. The final table was packed, I had to watch it on TV like everyone else. Too bad I didn't know you were here, I would been happy to let PayPal buy you a beer. :-)

[Donald LaFell]

it takes a special person for sales/marketing especially if you aren't genuinely passionate about the product.

[stirs]

I have been to only 37 states, not traveling much anymore. Just a show now here and there and within the state of NC. The trips to Asia were the worst. Jet lag kicks my butt.
