so ive now been in my apartment for a few days. aside from furniture im pretty much all settled in. the people who lived here before me were carpet fresh freaks...i have so much vacuuming to do once i get a vacuum. sadly the carpet fresh situation just proves once again how futile carpet shampooing is. things are going pretty well i guess, job seems to be going well, place seems to be filling out. my broker cracks me up, today i came in from waiting for the cable guy, and the first thing she hollers across the office is "hey joel did you get your cox?" working in an office consisting of all women aside from myself is funny. this episode was followed shortly by my broker just seeing the top of one of my coworkers head over a partition, knelt infront of me with her saying, "well i was going to spit, but you know." and the perfectly reasonable explination for this was she was cleaning/shining my shoes. how exactly thats reasonable tho im not sure...all i can say is i was relating my carpet fresh woes to her and she went to work on my shoes. so atleast going to work is a hoot, not to mention as far as work itself goes, im doing well. im definitely starting to carve out a niche for myself as a leader among the group, ive already taken control of scheduling apparently, then during a training seminar last week, i successfully led the office in the exercise the seminar was focused on. my goal at this point is to work myself into a managerial/training position, i think i could get the agents all producing more once ive gotten a good feel for this system. so hopefully as i hone my own listing presentation, i can convert it into something that can be adapted by others and present the idea to my broker and the owners. ok sleepy time. ninight
