Ode to Argent

Well as of May 25th, I am officially unemployed from Argent. It was good while it lasted, almost 5 years. I was a little unsure of working there at first but after the first few months and the money flying in I had to agree I made the right choice. The first two years were very profitable for me as an account manager, several months hitting the top 10 account managers. The mortgage business has been rough and only going downhill in the past 3 years so as they say all good things must come to an end.

I had the chance to attend many fun events put on by Argent. I got to go to a rooftop Cubs game on my birthday (game just happened to be on my birthday, not that they had it for my birthday), I got to see Mark McGrath of Sugar Ray, David Spade comedian, Erica Badu, and also a famous comedian from Mad TV who's name escapes me at the moment. I was also lucky enough to win tickets to Chicagoland Speedway to watch Buddy Rice and Danika Patrick, Indy Car racers sponsored by Argent.

I am lucky enough to say that I made some good friends while working and even though my employment has ended the friendships have not.
