I got a call for an insurance company and I was like, I don't want to do insurance. It was the only interview that I got back out of all the submissions. Him and I had a two hour interview. I had originally went in for a sales job.
By the time I left, I was office manager and I had negotiated significant pay increase from what was posted. And I started running the business. We went from a 60% retention to a 90% in less than six months. And he came to me and he goes, what are you doing?
