The “Job”

Saturday, October 24th, 2009

I was recently speaking to a group of business folks visiting Asheville.  The topic of “loving your job” was brought up.  They commented that they wanted my job as a wine trainer  and even better, a wine trainer at the most visited winery in the country.  I quickly reminded them that “jobs” really are what we make them.  What we bring and what we take to them. Liking what we do is important otherwise there are just long unhappy days.  We need to work at caring about what we do and how we do it. Do it with personal pride and  always be willing to learn more everyday.  Having a job really is all it is cracked up to be.. I would not like to try life without one.

WINE…ing WITH JACKIE

Monday, October 5th, 2009

As a wine tasting coach I will entertain and educate you and those at your gathering.  How serious or educational is up to you.

Holiday gatherings, celebrations, office events, reunions or just a fun night.  Remember that wine was created to play with and enjoy.  Find out what a wine label really means, what the wine merchants might not tell you, and learn that pairing food and wine is not rocket science, find out just what a wonderful sparkling really is plus and lots more.

As a public speaker, I have had the opportunity to demystify wines for people for years.  It’s all about fun.  For fees and availability go to info@jackiepelletier.com.

Cheers!
