I've had 1 person show up in the last week trying to convince me to stay, another one or two texted me "WTF" and after my message this morning, the CEO of a big, very well known local non profit reached out to me.

Agreed in full

SRG, wherever the path may be leading you, those who are waiting on your arrival will be very fortunate to have you serving them. Best of luck, partner! The old redneck in east Texas is cheering for you.

YEah, that is true, @Huff .. consider 2 days ago at 54 below was our coldest day in 12 years and that mcgrath holds the weather record for the coldest ever recorded temp with a windchill in a populated place in the USA, you'd be right.

5 1/2 years in a market might be the perfect sweet spot for experiencing everything that makes it special, building lifelong memories, and creating a meaningful legacy there before making your next important career move.

Congratulations, Paul, and all the best with whatever is next!
 
Having been out of the business for many years, I always enjoyed you mini-tutorials on how voice tracking worked. Besides your professional life changing for the better, I'm sure your personal life will also.

Good luck in your journey.
