Road Salesmen

Has anyone out there had any recent experience with road salesmen for
California. It has been so many years since we had someone on the road
that I am a little nervous with all the crime stories I’ve heard. I am
getting a little tired of going out on the road to sell myself. Ten days
on the road followed by twenty in the shop followed by ten days on the
road. No time for fun and family. Any one have suggestions for a good
salesman?

Thanks,

Most important is that the salesman ( or woman) should vary the schedule.
Most of the problems seem to occur when there is a regular routine, i.e.
same day of the week and same approximate time of day. In Philadelphia,
we have had a rash of stick-ups done by a gang of Columbians. Their
victims schedules tended to be pretty predictable.
