I sell Avon. It's my "second" job, although I've done it alot longer than I've worked at the grocery store. I started it in College as a way to make some extra
drinking spending money. I quit when I got married to
get free sell Tupperware. It didn't dawn on me that I could do both at the same time. I missed Avon because I really do like and use the products and I had all of the Tupperware I wanted, so I went back to Avon. To be honest, at the time it was just so I could get a discount on the items I used. But I stuck with it and actually had a pretty good business going. Then BAM, the economy collapsed and so did my sales. I was ready to cut back anyway, a little burn-out, I suppose. Now that I'm interested it building it back up the Company decided to re-district. I got put into a group that is called "Trendsetters". It's the Company's way of predicting how sales will be and order for the warehouses accordingly. See, we sell ahead of everyone else and I'm selling Christmas already. No one is interested in Christmas yet. But I'm playing Christmas music (even as I type this) in order to get myself in the state of mind to sell Holiday items. Not sure it's working!

We've had a cold couple of days here in Smallville--it was 47 last night--but it's still too early for Christmas tunes.
I'm not sure if they would get me in the mood, or put in a mood.
Got the first Christmas heavy catalogs last week. They got tossed. Good luck with being a trendsetter :-)
