Fire, fire and more fire…

 

I have mentioned numerous times that fire isn’t always your friend especially when it comes to pest control. “Why kill it with fire is a terrible, terrible idea” by Gwen Pearson.

 

Fire and the things related are often compromised by one’s ability to think things out. People often don’t think before they do something and that is where the trouble begins. Bed Bugs for example are extremely difficult to get rid of and often requires a Pest Management Professional. They are trained to do what they do and that in itself could be the reason to hire a professional.

What life lesson have you learned?

 

As we grow older we are supposed to gain wisdom, does that always work? I think not but here is my take on what I have learned in my short time on this planet.

  1. You can’t be good at everything, so be good with what you can be. I started in the pest industry in 1992 and started as a salesman. I was OK but that was about it and then an opportunity presented itself, I was given a chance to be a Service Manager. I found my calling, I love service and I love solving issues. Now don’t get me wrong, I can sell and I think most of don’t realize that we sell everyday. You sell yourself, maybe to a new friend, or a new job. But whatever it is, we sell everyday just as we promote ourselves.
  2. Be passionate about what you do and you can do anything. Some days are tougher than others but I love my job, I love sharing my knowledge with others especially kids. It is really fun to see a child’s mind start to work and comprehend the lifecycle of bugs and that things can indeed hurt you.

So how about you? How about commenting below and tell me your stories?
