Good Afternoon, Reception Speaking

How can I help you?

Not the most popular thing I’ve said to day, and maybe not the main thing, but it’s definitely going to become part of my daily vocabulary. I’ve started my new position yesterday, and I love it. It’s so much fun, and it’s so intense with all its intricate work and responsibilities, but it’s intense. It’s so perfect for me, but there’s so much for me to learn, that it gets a little hectic.

Yesterday, I had a meeting with the owners of the company to discuss my duties and responsibilities. It’s so intense. I have the responsibility over 4 areas in the office: the boardroom, the front desk, the lobby and the literature/mail room. I’m pretty pumped about all this responsibility.

I have to say, that I’m fitting this position like a glove. I really like it. This has been my first whole week in the job, and it’s awesome! The phones are super easy because they barely ring, I just get the call backs from when people can’t get through to the person they want to talk to. I’m doing a lot of data entry which is coming easier and faster. They still sit with me while I’m entering some of the stuff, but a lot of it I’m starting to do on my own. I’m starting to help Fran out more again, which is good because I think she’s silently drowning in her work, now that she lost my 2 full days of helping her. I’m going to help her out everyday for about an hour and a half. That’ll at least lessen her load, and that’s the time when I’m usually doing my own thing waiting for the phone to ring. I also make sure that there is paper in the machines, do the mail, simple stuff like that. I feel professional. It’s awesome. I’m thinking that I need to get my nails ‘did for this job. Which I’ve never been able to do before for a job. Sweet. No more hard labour for this girl.

I’ve been so lazy with this post, the inspiration was there, but the drive wasn’t. I get home a little bit later and pretty much K/O on the couch. I putter around online, but I’m trying to get better at posting again. Maybe try for some more pictures? I’ve been reading a lot, I’ve gotten hooked back on to romance novels (kill me, they are so good) and since I had a snow day on Wednesday, I finished like, 3 of them. All I did that day was read, eat, watch tv and sleep. At work, I have to work overtime to make up those hours, but I do have to say that they were well worth it.

I can’t wait until summer, I’ve decided to join a softball team with A-MoG and his girlfriend. I’m a little worried because I haven’t played a sport in a ridiculously long period of time. I know that I’m not a girl and won’t duck away from the ball, but I don’t have all the muscle that I used to have from working in a barn. I’m going to have to start working out or something. At least lifting more boxes. And maybe start that yoga regime that I’ve been avoiding for the last 6 weeks. More hand mixing of my baked goods. The only good thing about winter is that I don’t spend as much money because I don’t go anywhere.
