Winter Haven Lake Region Yacht and Country Club

John Frates
Talk about some of the most horrible clubs being run in the game.  The previous post I was describing the new director of tennis John Frates.  This guy is not even certified, and even if he was he does not maintain his membership.  This guy allegedly has 20 years in the business, helping himself, not others.  This guys has some crooked ass teeth too, not pretty.  I also understand why now his kids never played tennis and played all other sports except tennis.  Respected fathers usually have children who try to follow in their footsteps.  I went out of my way to set up an interview.  I always wanted to work at a YACHT club.  I wondered what it was and thought this was my chance to work at a high end club put my business that is in the crapper on hold, make some more money coaching at this club and invest that money back into my business.  After wasting an hour conversation on the phone with this puts I drive another hour to interview.  I kill the interview.  I am told to call back at a certain time for the results of the interview, under the impression I would get a start date.  No answer.  Three messages later, no call back.  I am half the man I used to be.  The economy sucks and my odds hitting the lottery are not so good.  Take time with a wounded hand is what they say...It likes to heal.  Well I am sick and tired of being sick and tired.
