I know I am a very very creative person in most regards (music, writing, etc etc).<br /><br />I discovered planning during my second interview for account management jobs, and quickly found it to be the ideal job for me. My experience so far says it was a good choice of career.Rob Mortimer (aka Famous Rob)https://www.blogger.com/profile/10070962082242558718noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-10861841.post-44967371853392964692009-11-30T17:31:56.782+00:002009-11-30T17:31:56.782+00:00Interesting post Rob.

I can do creative but I'm much better at improving on an idea, helping it develop etc. <br /><br />Curious to see what your answer to Adam & Dan's question is...shibhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00494728966984937582noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-10861841.post-35478259118173699922009-11-30T09:41:57.039+00:002009-11-30T09:41:57.039+00:00Nice post Rob with some interesting views! Do you ...Nice post Rob with some interesting views! Do you think you'd have considered creative more if you had done a course like ours or do you still think you'd be set on being a planner?Adam Lowehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16802536819033703245noreply@blogger.com
