Yeah I don't really blame him for not wanting to but also football has a shelf life and at some point I think he should of realized he didn't have it anymore. It may be revisionist history but I feel like his stats in NY and MN were not nearly what they were his last few years in GB.
Training people does suck in almost all circumstances. I had to do that in my last "real" job and people would quit after a few weeks then you start all over again. One of the worst parts of the job.
Absolutely.

I have been fortunate that I have never had to do that.

Key being now. There is always a future person for a given job. That is fine. I have plans of continuing to move up so its all good.

That works too. Many people find a specific spot and stick with it. I just have to see what the plans look like when we get back to work. Have to be ready for the next opportunity. Hopefully it will be closer to home.

That is great. I suspect it will require me to do something a bit different in order to work closer to home. The daily drive is fairly long. Not looking forward to going back to that.
