Also, having the attitude about "whipping post" will bring you to your knees real quick....If you have that attitude already, imagine what it'll be like once your out there...You ARE getting paid for it, remember? Keep your head up...Regardless of what you got to do to get started. Remember, you only have to get started ONCE, so stick it out, and make the best of it. |
I may have sounded negative, but I am only using the lingo I have come across here. I am not sure, but I have to think that starting with the big pumpkin would be like starting on the bottom of the ladder with any other type of company. You pay your dues, show your worth, and expect the best in the end. Now that may not jive with many peoples thoughts here (at least from what I have read) but I dont think the dues are much different. Its grunt work in the beginning and then smoother rides after your rookie tour! Am I right?
