Bank Robber? Flexible hours and you get to meet new people.
What are you doing now? Giving you advice on a new career is easier when we know what you're capable of. |

so you were good and had lots of clients and they sent you to a dead place hoping you bring business there too and you are looking at this as negative? take as compliment, and a challenge and make the best of it. Im sure if you could get good cs relationships going in old place, youll do so now too. But hey, gotta be happy, but be realistic in your salary expectations - switching careers usually means you come unqualified and you cant expect the employer to just pay you what you want. so be prepared to tough it out for a year before you get the good money going.

This is the place for a saying that in our country goes like:
"if your horse is dead, stop trying to ride it." I can understand your grief very well, since I doubt that the market for Land Rover will recover any time soon. If you are truely missed in the BMW department there must be a chance to go back there. On the other hand the US are only at the verge of long needed changes. Ever thought about industrial sales? Selling something that is of true worth in the longterm? Doesn΄t any of your BMW customers own a business, that looks interesting? BMW might have been a good place for you in the past, but where do you see yourself in 10+ years? Forget about housing though. And don΄t ask about daytrading next, please. all the best mo-i |

start your own business... sell rims for bimmers and all sorts of mods. don't let the man own you!
everybody don't laugh, there's a good message in there. either way, good luck back at your old job.
