The New Jet Set

by Tracy Staton

John More, San Ramon, Californina

"I cannot imagine a 9-to-5 lifestyle. I view that life as dull, routine, and terribly boring. I appreciate the grand perspective travel gives me on life outside my world."
Leilani Latemer, San Francisco, Californina

"From seven miles up, there are no fences, no neighborhoods, no cities, no counties, no states, no countries. Just land and water - nature's boundaries. In these times, I think we all need to look beyond our borders and understand that we are all part of a bigger family. We have to come together as citizens of planet Earth and think beyond the political boundaries man has created."
W. Graeme Roustan, Miramar, Florida

"Being a Road Warrior builds tremendous flex-
ibility and adaptability. I can be productive in the unlikeliest of places - seat 16B was where I created my latest customer presentation. And this adaptability extends to times when I'm not traveling."
Dianah M. Schimidt, San Diego, California

"Being a Road Warrior has taught me to be creative, to think outside the box. Some people in my life think I come by that ability naturally - not true; I learned it on the road.

By experiencing the variety of problems that are a part of dealing with people of various cultures and backgrounds, I have learned to spot potential solutions in many different ways. If I worked in the same office each day, I don't think my perspective would be
as broad."
John W. Fischbach, Dallas, Texas

"When I first started traveling, I didn't have the patience I do now. I began to feel more hurried and harried. My voice grew louder, and when I was home for dinner, I chewed so quickly my plate would be clean before my wife even sat down.
