Bealine - not "my" posting per se - the content that is!
Funny isn't it - the organisation in which I work is literally worldwide - I deal with people on every continent and in most countries in real time (and know some of the people with whom I deal as well as my bestest friends) - but I've never physically met most of them!
I voluntarily moved away from the travelling/meeting part of the job several years ago, and have enjoyed the job far more since.
A colleague was in the other day (still travelling) and from a) the look of him, and b) his comments; he is of the same attitude as the writer of my posting, and will soon be joining me in "domestic bliss" (so to speak . . .).
