My brother-in-law works for a company that sells ammunition practice ranges. He gets a lot of big contracts with all kinds of huge corporations. The U.S. military for one. Major city police forces for another. He sells the ranges and then helps install them when necessary. Whoever coached his field sales training at the beginning of this career--well, they did a fine job.
Because he's been with this company for a while and he has had a very lucrative run. A lot of people rely on him heavily and he spends a good deal of time traveling and ensuring that the product delivered arrives as promised and up to specification. He's very good at what he does.
My sister (his wife) is at home on her own with their four kids while he's in the field and at times it exasperates her beyond anything. Because little kids are difficult on even the best days and she has four under the age of ten and it's hard.
But the upside is that with all of his travel, he racks up sky miles and they get to travel alone a lot. They go to the Caribbean and Peru and the middle east. They've been to Egypt and Vancouver B.C. as well as a lot of other exotic locations, on his sky miles alone. Not a bad deal.
