Raining Lazy Day

I was going to take and post pictures of all the free twine I received from my husbands, friends, girlfriends, uncle... :o) But yeah know... I don't feel like it.

I was going to take and post pictures of some jewelry that I made... but yeah know... I don't feel like it.

I think I'm going to talk about my job. Something I haven't done yet, because I do it all day, I normally don't want to sit down and write about it.

But the last week has been interesting to say the least. I work at an airline in the customer service department, well, at least that's what my badge says. Since the summer of last year I've been working on various projects. Creating procedures for my co-workers to use, updating other procedures, cleaning up our intranet pages, briefings.. briefings.. and yet more briefings.

Well, the team I was working with on one project to create a more user friendly intranet site just won a "Superstar" award. What this means to me is the 4 of us are going to split $500.00 and we each get either a day off, or a space available upgrade the next we fly our airline. I of course took the day off. My share is $125.00 and I plan to spend this money on myself for something useful, and that will last.

Also, just today I received another accommodation from a customer. I forgot the certificate at work, but she REALLY loved me! Its funny, before 9/11 I was a senior representative within my department. This position is kind of like a supervisor, just without the pay. I was so miserable with that position. I was told by my manager that I didn't have good internal or external customer services skills. I was written up left and right and all the way around.

Now that SAME manager is singing my praises and ASSIGNING me all these projects I'm working on. Go figure. Well, at this point I'm really doing what I can to keep my job, because after all, I work for an airline, and since 9/11 no airline position is safe.

Well, I think I'm going to work on my new template design.
