		<description>Great post, Gayle
Who cannot empathize with Ted Kramer?  Great visual to make the  &quot;Shlepper&quot; point. No one needs to  or should slide down that slope.

		<description>Gayle,

So true. And your &quot;Ted Kramer&quot; analogy certainly hits the point home. Most folks think this is the worst time of year, when actually it can be an excellent time for networking. 

And as you said, the best way to head off feelings of &quot;failure&quot; is to keep on focus, straight on through the Holiday season.</description>
