Probably changing career paths as a sales representative for major food and tobacco companies. Up to 2006 I had spent my career working for candy, tobacco and snack companies: Hersheys, Brachs, Drakes, Marlboro, Fuego Cubano. After Fuego Cubano terminated their outside sales force I had the opportunity to work at a really fun job-selling teddy bears and stuffed animals for Gund. The best, most fun, highest paid job I would ever have and the longest in duration-5 years. The gift industry was a different field but I was a quick learner winning numerous sales awards and bonuses being named Salesperson of the Year in 2008. Found my niche. Too bad the company went through reorganization after being sold and I was let go. Best job I ever had,
