slo’s WEDNESDAY 4/23 poll - Taking Chances

[Kitty 34]

I don't like taking chances. I like everything the way it is and don't like change.

Nancy, that is soooo me now!!!

I had no filter as a young child and teen. I had fun skiing off cliffs.

While I have slowed down a bit at almost 60 years old, I still have no problem getting up to 35-40 mph on my bike going down hills. My top speed was 43 during a race and my DH lost his mind when he saw that.

I'm between #3 and #4, Big at times, more somewhat others. Biggest chance I took was in my career. I was a Mechanical Engineer and getting kind of burned out when my company approached me about moving into Sales. It was a requirement that you needed to have an engineering degree to work in sales, as it was more of a problem solving, assisting customers in design, than a basic sales position. It wasn't something I had ever considered and after thinking about it and discussing with my wife I took the leap. One of the best decisions I made. I loved the job and got to travel the world and built up a good reputation in the field as someone that could solve problems and create solutions.

Biggest non career thing I ever did was go skydiving. Not really a big fan of heights but some of my friends were going and I gave in to peer pressure (was in my early 20's). That was a one and done!!!

I feel like I am taking more chances this past year since a change of location plus separation.
