So Long and Farewell to the Bank

As most of you know, JB is leaving the banking business. Today is his last day as a banker. After 7 1/2 years of banking, JB has decided to pursue a different career. He has enjoyed his career in banking and made some wonderful friends; however, it's not what he enjoys doing the most. JB is a teacher/trainer at heart. He enjoys presenting and teaching in front of a group. After much prayer and consideration, he has accepted the Corporate Trainer position at a local furniture company. (I am not comfortable naming the company on the web for numerous reasons; however, if you are interested in knowing I will be glad to give you the info through email). It is a very reputable company and they claim to be the largest in the Southeast.

This job position is a blessing and due to only circumstances that God allowed, we feel that is it what is best for our family at this time. This job is giving us a little more financial blessings and they added an extra week of vacation than they normally would do for new employees. And the best part, it was more than JB expected and asked for. This is proof that God really does care about His children and the desires of their heart. I am proud of JB and look forward to what God has in store for him in this new position.

As best as I can explain, JB will be the only trainer in his "department". He will have the responsibility of communicating on an on-going bases with all the managers to discuss what their "underlings" need training on. Anywhere from management skills, sales, customer service skills, etc. JB will then create/develop the material in which will be needed to train. This is a new position for this company and JB is looking forward to the new challenges that await.

Although, today is JB's last day at the bank, he will not begin his new job until May 21st. I am looking forward to him being home for the next 2 weeks. During this time off, we will be taking a family vacation to the beach. (More to come on concerning our trip, later).

I will keep you all posted on the adventures of his new career. I ask that you keep JB in your prayers as he eagerly begins this new path in his life.(This company employees approximately 350 to 400 employees).

Until next time, HB
