Nick: hey how was dinner last night?
me: pretty good, i should’ve invited u
or i did
that’s right
lol
Nick: no you did, but i didn’t make it to ivars until 345 so i wasn’t hunger at all
11:21 AM you have to come to happy hour at ivars or mccormicks one night, they have the best deals
me: sweet
what are they?
11:22 AM Nick: ivars, everything goes to 3 4 or 5 bucks, so you can get fish and crips for 5 or chowder and cornbread for 5
me: inside the fine dining area or in the mass produced section?
11:27 AM Nick: wow fuck my the man just left the company
me: !!!!!!!!!!!!
11:28 AM direct the man?
Nick: yeah
me: what now?
u independent or what?
11:30 AM Nick: i dont’ fucking now, i have 6 months until iam supposed to be
me: are u in the office alone?
Nick: well no, my the man won’t leave for a month
11:31 AM but he just took the other job
me: where?
Nick: across the street working for the agents, as there in house guy
11:32 AM me: hmm
do u think they will continue to pay ur salary, then set u loose?
Nick: i have know idea what they are thinking
11:33 AM me: has he told the home office?
Nick: yeah he just did
11:34 AM hmmm
me: u should think about what u want out of them
salary till the end of your contract, but you start working independently now?
11:35 AM Nick: well that could be nice, but i havn’t been able to work on my business plan and start marketing like your supposed to do in the last 3 months
11:37 AM maybe i can work from home sopporting another loan officer for a few months, and then role out of the program.
11:38 AM me: if i was you, i would send the ceo an email telling him you really like the company and have the loan stuff down pat and would like to take over your old the man’s position right now
and since this is such a surprise, you would like him to continue your salary as you get started
and ask to have his office
11:39 AM Nick: well my the man said he is not allowed to tell me, but they is a job for me at marcus
me: really?
send the current ceo that email and see what they’ll pay u at the other place
what is marcus?
a bank?
11:40 AM Nick: Marcus and Millicap they are the big real estate agent house
11:41 AM me: what would u do
same thing?
11:42 AM Nick: glenn need support
me: hmm, i wouldnt do it
be ur own loan officer
that’s why u got in this, right?
11:43 AM Nick: don’t worry i will figure it out, i want to finish out the program and let them make me a loan officer
if they let me start now it will be hell, but i would still do it.
me: definitely do that
tell them u want the support though
6 more months salary
and the office
11:44 AM Nick: yah i don’t know
me: shoot for it- worst they can do is say no
and they will feel pressured to give u other stuff
11:45 AM Nick: The office is $1,600 a month so, i don’t know how they will feel about starting me early and paying ofr all the expenses
me: be confident
tell them what u told me
u do all the work now anyways
11:46 AM Nick: well, they know that, they know i handle the work, but glenn brings in the business, he knows 15 years worth of clients
me: hmm
perhaps salary + work from home?
Nick: i have to start off with almost no contacts and just start cold calling
11:47 AM I think it makes more sense for me to stay under BM umbrella
if i got to marcus they won’t turn me into an officer because glenn will already be there and they are not really a bank
11:48 AM me: yeah, dont do that
Nick: fuck, i am going ot have to adjust
11:49 AM i was sitting pretty easy, i was just going to ride this out until sept, now things get interesting
me: be proactive
talk to ur ceo asap
Nick: yep
11:53 AM yeah i sent him an email
i am heading down to lunch
11:54 AM me: later
