A day in the life of a CrossCheck field sales person sometimes mimics the fast pace of a certain counter-espionage series that dominated television for a number of years. That one-hour program always began with the words, “the following takes place between 10:00 AM and 11:00 AM” or whatever particular hour was being framed during the episode. CrossCheck field sales representatives don’t carry weapons, but they are armed with the latest information about check guarantee services.
