Texas, here I come!

Tomorrow is my last day of 2 long weeks of training to move to my new position at work! I will now be transitioning from smaller, less detailed accounts in 8 New England states that I shared with 2 other underwriters, to larger, more detailed counts in one part of Texas that are my own accounts! It's going to be so different to have my own Marketing Reps and my own accounts!

As far as I know, I'll be working with the Houston area of the state (see picture below), which means I have lots of rules to learn! As you can probably imagine, insurance companies can be more selective in what we like to cover based on the distance from the coast etc...



I'm very excited to take on more responsibility and apply what I've learned in the past two weeks of training. Doesn't it sound exciting to you? ;) Who doesn't want to spend their day working on a quote for a Petroleum Marketer, an Equipment Dealer, a Machine Shop or even a Lumber Yard!? Amazingly, I love my job and I can't wait to dive into these new types of businesses!!!

I won't bore you anymore with work talk since most of you reading this probably don't have a clue what it is I do everyday!

As of 12:30 tomorrow, I'll be a Texas Underwriter :)

I work in insurance now too! Financial Reporting Accountant for group term life, short term disability, and long term disability. Complicated stuff, but I like the challenge, as I'm sure you do too!
