OMG OMG OMG OMG TODAY HAS BEEN THE MOST AWESOMEST OF AWESOME DAYS IN THE HISTORY OF AWESOME DAYS!

It started off with me getting mine, Nicole and David’s Platinum passes to CONCON *bounces*

Got to work – we’ll ignore the shitty drive through fog because this is a happy post – only to find out that we had been kicked out of our training room. So we all trailed upstairs to the call centre, fulling expecting to continue to answer letters etc like we had been last week.
But no!
Our trainers threw something rather unexpected on us: We we going live on the phones. Yes, the phones. As in answering calls. Real calls. From real people *flails*

We started off in teams. I was with Jim & Steph and we rotated who was answering the calls and who was listening in.
By lunchtime, mind, I was antsing to just… DO it myself. So, I spent the afternoon actually going solo. And by the end of the day, my timing stats were in line with the rest of the call centre.

We’re supposed to get our quality control reports tomorrow so i’m quite looking forward to it.

AND we got our lockers

People Love That You Are Open and Confident


You’re the type of person that’s easy to get close to. You’re very comfortable in your own skin.
You have no problem showing people who you are, and you’re genuinely interested in them in return.

You are an accepting and involved friend. You are truly curious about what is going on in other people’s lives.
You may be the first in your group of friends to express concern when someone is having a hard time or making bad decisions. It’s only because you care so much.





Plan M (Where Hardison Dies)

8 11 2009

Yeah, so much for that remember to post more than once a week thing… epic fail on my behalf.

I… just.. have nothing to talk about.
Or at least nothing that I feel is even worth posting about.
I get up, I go to work, I train all day, I come home utterly exhausted and pass out.

I could post about how I spent the day learning about the Deceased Procedure but would anyone really want to read about what we do with water accounts when someone’s died and how the rules change for probate and rental properties and all about executors of estates?
No, I didn’t think so somehow!

And then, when I do get in from working having spent the last 4 weeks, 8 hours a day, 5 days a week purely training… I’m just exhausted – mentally and physically.
I eat, then curl up either on the couch or in bed, and… well.. ok if I’m honest my brain has been eaten alive by Farmville, Vampire Wars and Mafia Wars on Facebook… SO DAMN ADDICTIVE!

I am however blogging for a reason – and it’s not about the fact I have nothing to say, I promise!
Because I am one incredibly happy fangirling llama right now WHO IS GOING TO THE LEVERAGE CONVENTION IN PORTLAND IN MARCH
(why yes, I am a bit excited about this!)

Everything has been falling in place over the last day or so. I booked my plane fare last Saturday, I have a hotel room in the Marriot with a group of friends.
And then yesterday all the the convention pass bits all fell into place – although my god I have never known plans to change so many freaking times in one day:
The day started with mum giving me the money for a Platinum pass *flails*
Then, I realised that for the price of one platinum, I could get two gold and get my girlfriend Nicole a ticket as well.
Then, over the course of the day, mum kept giving me more money, so there was a diamond pass each.
By the end of the day, Nicole’s mum is paying a platinum and my mum is paying two platinum so me, her AND her boyfriend David are all gonna be platinum*
As are our friends Susan and Amara
Plus Lisa and Sarah are gonna be there too
OMG ITS GONNA BE THE MOST FANTASTIC WEEKEND EVER AND I CAN’T WAIT AND I’VE NOT STOP FLAILING OR GRINNING OR BOUNCING AND SQUEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE!!!!!!

So now, all I have to do is manage to get those platinum passes when they go on sale this evening. Or, in the early hours of the morning as it is for me!

*takes a deep breath*
So, its possible I might be a little excited
LMFAO

*yes my girlfriend has a boyfriend – it’s a polyamory thing that… I’ve not quite got my head round or figured quite out for myself yet so please don’t ask me to explain or clarify because I’m still a little confused myself!
