First off, I would like to introduce myself. My name is Richard and my job calls to travel all over the world. I travel with famous people as they sing their little hearts out. No, I’m not a rock star. I just work for one as their tour manager.
Being a tour manager means I have to follow whatever touring group decides to hire me. I come highly recommended so that means that I travel more days than I am at home. It proves to be hard, especially now. You see, my wife is pregnant with our second child and my first-born is growing up without my having to see it happen. It saddens me.
A colleague of mine from a previous tour recommended that I get a wireless web camera. He says that that is how he connects with his family while he is gone. He gets to see them from anywhere in the world without having to spend much on video phone calls but rather just using the internet on his laptop.
I’m considering getting one right before I leave for the next tour. If all he said about it is true, then I would be able to keep watch over my family and make sure that they are safe. I would also be able to see the changes that would happen during my wife’s pregnancy. And I would also be able to watch my first-born son grow up. It’s not the same as being there, but it’s as close as I could get with my job.
I still have some reservations though. I am not the most tech savvy person. I know how to operate computers and cell phones and a few other gadgets. Getting a wireless web camera will be a whole other thing for me. I sure hope that it would be easy to set up and easy to use.
