Ask Someone Who's Been There

I interviewed Rob McAsey. He is a bail agent and he has been for the last fourteen years. He choose his occupation because he needed extra money. Financially it lets him live the way he wants to live. A reward that he has experienced being a bail agent is lots of excitment but sacrifices he makes are losing a lot of sleep and working 24 hours a week. I learned if you work as a bail bond you have to have a bail liscense and you have to be very committed. Rob had 8 hours of contin education each year. He has a lot of energy in his job because he loves it and he knows how to manage his sleep time. He has to be very organized because he needs to know where files, records, and bail agreements are. If Rob had to do it over agian he said he would choose this career agian because it is a fun and exciting job.

Lacy Lucchetti is a realestate agent. She has been working as a realestate agent for three years. Lacy choose her job because she wanted an opputunity to make better money. Her job doesn't let her live the way she wants financially because currently the market isn't good. Since her job doesn't pay as good as she wants she said if she works harder, put in more hours, and had more advertising she would get paid better. She has experienced many rewards though. Some rewards are good money and giving home buyers their keys to their new homes. She has sacrificed time away from her family because she sometimes works hours outside of monday through friday and eight a.m. to 5 p.m. If you want to be a realestate agent you need a realesate liscense through the state and a high school diploma. You also have to learn to jugle your clients and keep them happy at all times. You have to be very organized and you have to complete all files. Lacy said if she had to do it over again she would do the same job because she can make her own hours and as much money as she wants.

My mom, Stasi Carr, is an Insurance Agent. She has worked as one for twenty years. She choose her occupation because she needed a job. She started as a file girl and then got a liscense to sell insurance. Financially, her job lets her live the way she perfers. Two rewards that she has experienced are dealing with the public and helping people save money on insurance. Some sacrifices she has made are working a lot of hours and always having big challanges every day. To be an Insurance agent my mom had to have a high school degree and an Insurance Agent/Broker License. During work she must be patient accurate and through to keep her patients happy. She also must be very organized. She needs to be able to pull up someones file fast. If she had to do it over again she said she would still be an Insurance Agent because its never boring and she always busy.

After interviewing Rob, Lacy, and my mom I realized that if you do what makes you happy you will have a good life. All three of them love their job and wouldn't want to change anything about it. Lacy taught me that even if your job doesn't financially fight your needs you should still do it if you love it and work harder everyday so it will. Rob taught me that being something that has excitment pays off and never makes you bored. My mom taught me that if you have good energy then you can make people and clients at your work happy. All three of them are organized. It's a big part of their jobs and any other job. They need to know right where their files are and all their papers they did. Interviewing Lacy, Rob, and my mom make me want to find a good job that I love so I'll have a good, fun life.
