the first couple days of my new "job"
the past couple days have been hectic. it actually hit its peak today on sunday, but i knew when i first accepted the job that it wasnt going to be easy at all. and really, i only say hectic because ive just been way too busy. i definately would be screwed if i were enrolled for this semester. anyway, with my position with salary, i cant get overtime at all. that would be the only downfall of my job, but the paycheck shouldnt be too bad. i think just working the front desk for consecutive days gets to me. its not that i hate doing front desk work, but it gets stale every once in a while. sometimes, i just do not want to handle the problems im faced with just being at the desk. regardless, its a job, and i do whatever i can to do it correct.
today, in particular, was pretty hectic. i went to fayetteville the night before to hang out with my family and be there for my dad's birthday on sunday. i was supposed to get breakfast w/ my dad and the rest of the family. unfortunately, things happened at work where i had to be there early to get everything back in order. i felt bad that i couldnt even be at home with my dad on his birthday. at the same time, i was frustrated with the situation. for pretty much the whole day i was not in the best of moods. luckily, i finally got everything straight in the last minute, but it still put a whole lot of stress on not only myself, but pretty much everyone who was working today. no one was happy with the situation, but we had to live with it and now we have to find out how to prevent this from happening again. as for myself, i have a lot of work to do this week. i have to find more people to hire and try to make my current staff better than it is right now. theyre not bad, but i know all of them as a group can do way better.
im pretty exhausted now.
