The job I do comes with its fair share of unbelievable stress, pretty insane hours (I’ll leave that for the next blog post), a constant barrage of problems to solve without letting any of my clients know there even IS a problem, and sometimes it’s a true wonder we all still do it.
We do still do it though, because when it’s all said and done the job is actually pretty fun and there’s some perks that someone in a regular 9-5 just doesn’t get. The most awesome of which, for me, is the trips.
I have gotten to go on some pretty fun ones over the years. The resorts and hotels are always top notch, with the best amenities and luxury all the way. The Hanna family doesn’t mess around when it comes to where they take us. They are there too, for even longer than us because they host the different regions at different times. That means the family can be there for weeks in some cases, so the places we go are pretty damn fabulous.
This year we are going to an all-inclusive resort in Jamaica. Some of the other trips I’ve had the pleasure of attending with the Hannas are Naples, Florida, Punta Cana in the Dominican Republic, Miami Beach, Florida (That one was going to be Cancun but there were too many travel warnings at the time). Every year at the trip they announce where next year’s trip will be. I look forward to that each time. Going on a trip with my good friends who are in the same business is therapeutic and a salve for the stress. Relaxing, drinking, letting loose, and venting, venting, venting about all the craziness we deal with is always just what the doctor ordered.
My huge passion for travel is one of the reasons I set myself such high goals…. You have to earn the trip. It’s not just handed over to you. I strive for it each year, and always reach it. Here’s to 2019 and another trip well earned. If any of the Hannas are reading this, THANK YOU.
