Days Pass By

Thursday was a very slow day at the dealership. Not too much happening. I spend most of the day updating the new planning guides we were given. Management has decided to invest in the Joe Verde Training Network. I hear other dealerships have already been doing it, yet we are just diving into it. It's a good program, the other guys aren't so into it. Some think it's a waste of time, and some don't like how they are imposing it on us. I have no opinion; in the military I believe I will be imposed to do a lot of things.

Friday we had a sales meeting in the morning. We covered the training once more. After that, I headed to my grandparents' house. There I ate breakfast and softly broke the news to my grandmother that I had joined the military. I didn't tell my grandfather; she probably told him anyway. I also didn't tell them I was leaving at the end of next month.

It also just came to me on Friday that the Ms. leaves in two weeks. I am her transport every time she has to go out there. Sometimes that is all I feel like, a transport service; she assures me that I am not. But this does mean that I have to come up with money I don't have. Already just the hotel seems to be costing me around $500+. And this no spiff program is killing me!

AAPL seems to be slipping. Even with the announcement about the new iPod, the schools season for the iMacs, and the $100 credit to those who overpaid for they're iPhones, shares seem to be slipping. I believe it is a good and a bad thing. I don't like to see any red in my portfolio, but it does give me a chance to buy more.

As for today, I just hope something happens. We has some pretty good business yesterday, but nothing happened!! I must still be on this bad luck streak. Again, I hope something happens.
