"Professional traveller." You don't have to tell us. We already have everything set up for you. We run American to attract the man who does a lot of flying (and buys a lot of tickets). He's the reason we introduced the DC-3 in the Thirties. And the reservations computer in the Sixties. And the stewardess college. The fan-jet. Our 7-minute baggage delivery. And in-flight enchiladas and other big and little nice things. Of course, professional travellers come in all sizes and sexes. So you may wonder how we can tell when you turn up. We cheat. American Airlines We assume you're a professional traveller the moment your Travel Agent books you on American. American built an airline for professional travellers. (And you'll love it.)
I've worked hard for success but I've never been a slave to my job - - says Thomas L. Thorkelson, C.L.U., Santa Ana, California "Γm the kind of guy who likes to be independent. That's what attracted me to the insurance business. As a Mass Mutual agent I have the freedom I crave. I can organize my working hours to allow me to spend time with my family in our cabin in the High Sierras and to accept various speaking engagements across the country. Γm able to devote hours each week to serving as a bishop in the Mormon church. I have time for the Santa Ana Junior Chamber of Commerce and our local Boys' Club, and to teach an insurance course at Santa Ana College. I'm not a slave to my job in any sense of the word. "But don't get me wrong.When I work, I work hard. I prefer to see clients right here in my office. I've found that this gives me much more time to be of service to them. I feel my first duty is to show my clients what life insurance Some of the <strong>Cornell</strong> alumni in Massachusetts Mutual service: Arthur H. Challiss, Ίl, Seattle Roland A.

This involves more than advising them on types and amounts of life insurance. Quite often I find this means calling in their lawyer to advise them on related matters, or suggesting they contact a broker about investing extra cash they may have on hand." Tom Thorkelson is a 1954 Business Ad graduate of the <strong>University</strong> of Southern California who has been a Mass Mutual agent for seven years.
