I had an RM about 25 years old shadow me at work for a couple of weeks. I could see by his resume he was an RM, but he didn't know I was ex-mo. I avoided talking about religion, but one day his mission somehow came up. He served in Pennsylvania. I asked what kind of experience it was for him. He said, "It was hard." I asked what he meant by "hard", and he explained that although he was glad to be in the states with good food and a comfortable apartment it was hard going around all day trying to talk to people about things he knew they didn't want to talk about, i.e. religion. It was refreshing to hear him say it like it really is. That is certainly how I felt.
