I like to think of it as being summoned by the king. Here you are a lowly subject trying to make it in an industry that is know to devour people and spit them out on a daily basis. Many try but few succeed. Then, one day, ouit of the blue, the most successful person ever to be in the industry, the person who is literally at the top of the game, calls YOU because he recognizes YOUR work and thinks you are doing a good job! Man any person in any industry would love to be in that position. I know where I work at, I and with the people who are number one in the country if not the world in furniure sales. We are only 2-1/2 stores but we are considered a legend in the industry because although we are so small, we have outsold all of the larger chain stores in all markets and are located in the midwest. We hold the title of being the largest home furnishings store in the country. We were the largest in the world until a company in Germany built one larger that us. We have sales of over half a billion dollars a year. I find it hard to believe sometimes that I know the president of the company and he knows who I am. We are on a first name basis. When I see him in the hallway, we speak. Yeah, so I kinda know how they feel when they get called by Mike. You know who I am? kinda makes your head swell for a bit.
