Tomorrow is the awards ceremony put on by the Howard Hanna Real Estate Company for their sales associates individual accomplishments in the sales year 2008.I am attending in support of my new office and office manager in a show of unity for our new company. All of our accomplishments in our former company are being absorbed into the new firm.
I am still grieving the loss of my former company and the official move to our new office location took place on Friday the 13th. I made the move, put on a cheerful face, unpacked boxes and hopefully am settling in.
Here's the sad part of this tale. Only one home that I sold last year was not due to someone's distress. I mean, the owner had retired from "housekeeping" and was living in an independent senior complex, and enjoying every minute of life there.
Every other house that I sold last year was a home that had gone through the foreclosure process, making someone homeless.
Looking at the year in review, the award certificate seems hollow to me.
