Ever have to communicate with someone a lot whether over the phone or via email but you’ve never met them before? Whenever this happens or even if people are constantly telling me stories about people I’ve never met, I start to create a picture in my mind of what they might look like. But when I actually meet the people, its often very different from what I had in mind.

Some vendors are going to be on-site this week. One of them I talk to every week and email nearly every day. The other I haven’t really talked to much. But I’ve already got an idea placed in my mind of what he looks like by the way his voice sounds and his personality. It’ll be interesting when I meet him. The last time I met with a vendor, he looked completely different than I had imagined so it was quite a shock to me because I already had a picture in my mind. We’ll see what happens.
