I am in my new office!! I'd take a picture, but it's kinda messy....it has a door, it's out of the way, it's ok if I want to be my sloppy (but organized!) self!! Yay!
I completed my second day being at home for my reservation agent job today. I was having lots of issues with internet and phone, and then I found out my equipment was not updated. It was a VERY long, painful, frustrating process to get to the priveleged place of having customers tell me first, that I am speaking too quietly, or that they can't hear me, or that they want me to PLEASE not charge that fee, or that I am being rude when I repeat myself loudly so they can truly hear me over my constantly breaking up phone line. I had nice customers all day, until the last one...and it took me a long time to get him out of my head. Big deal, he said I was rude when I wasn't and it was the phone line's fault, right? Nobody was murdered, no random acts of violence. I wish I could get over these dang meanities a LOT quicker. I had a hard time with that when I was a teller, too. Too stinkin sensitive. Still working at Key Bank in evenings, though the hours are reducing greatly because of changing technology. I may be there another 2 months. Baby steps to severance, baby steps to severance....

Three cheers for your home office! And, isn't it good that most people don't react in a rude way. Wonder why it is that it is easier to remember that bad ones, and not focus on all the good ones. I find that I have to work at enjoying the good memories the nice people leave...and not the one rotten apple of the day. Enjoy being home...and soon the bank will be only a memory!!!

It definitely warms my whole day when even one person tells me that I have been a lot of help. I do enjoy helping these people. I'm actually still at the bank in the evenings, but the hours are quite a bit less. I'm hanging on so I can get severance when my department gets phased out, dontcha know! Preciate the comment.
