Three Years in the Books

Wow! Tomorrow will mark three years that I have been a member of Field Force Development (FFD). When I took this position with Aflac three years ago, I really didn't know what to expect. I knew a few of the employees from various functions and training classes I attended. I knew it was the best place for me to continue my learning process and get deeper involved with helping people on a larger scale.
In three years I have learned a vast amount of material about our business, about the industry, and about the varied cultures and climates spread across the country. (Climate is not a reference to weather patterns).

Of course Columbus isn't great to me just because of my job. My personal life has gained by meeting Laura. Not only is she beautiful and smart, but she also makes sure (literally) that when it is time to travel I will have the right room and transportation as needed.

I have been fortunate enough to meet some great people all over the country and have been able to partner with the Aflac Elite since moving to Columbus. FFD is a very large complex family. We have relatives spread all over the country and we constantly adopt more as some find their way out of the nest. I have had the personal satisfaction as recent as yesterday knowing what I share with the field has value, is appreciated, and can impact lives. It is a huge responsibility I take very seriously. I am excited every time I schedule my next opportunity to execute and deliver. FFD is taking on more members and although not all the roles have been clearly defined yet, I am thrilled to see what FFD, Aflac, and the Universe have lined up for me!

Just one more thing before I go...

Passengers will congregate in front of a TSA closed gate as much as one hour before a scheduled flight and TSA doesn't open and start the screening process sometimes until as late as 30 minutes prior to departure.

Happy Tripp Anniversary to Me with FFD!

that's The Brick Way...
