wow, i freakin love my job. i really didn't think it was possible to wake up early every morning, go to work and ENJOY IT. florida outdoors has proven me wrong. i have met some of the greatest people that i will probably ever meet in my life. from the owner, president, salesmen, service guys, parts people, body shop guys, they are all so cool and so welcoming. i get off everyday and i feel refreshed, in past jobs i have felt so tired and cranky. i do a lot all day, but i have fun while i do it and i enjoy the people who surround me. even the customers are awesome...they are some of the nicest people. i guess because they are RV people..they enjoy life and the simple things and they don't get bent out of shape if i accidently hang up on them or if they have to wait a little longer to be helped. and they are so quick to say thank you and tell me they appreciate my smile...at least one person tells me that everyday. one guy thanked me today for "being so kind with my time"..how nice is that? it's so cool how even the delivery guys are so nice. i love it!! it's amazing to be surrounded by happy people all day..it's impossible to be in a bad mood there.
i love that i get to work with people and that i got to meet everyone that i work with..they are some of the most talented people i've ever met.
today a customer came in and he was deaf and mute. we had to communicate everything with paper and a pen. me and tony from parts were trying to help him, he needed directions. that was one of the most difficult things i've had to do. we take the ability to communicate for granted, it's sad. this man was so sweet and kind hearted though, he was so patient with us and so appreciative of our time.
i got my packages from cabelas and bass pro today...awesome!! i got 4 shirts, a sweater, a jacket and a hat. good stuff..
other than that..not much is going on. i have a HUGE test in western civ on wednesday, so i've been studying at work when it gets slow. i HAVE to do well on this one.
congratulations boston fans..as much as it hurts to say, we got beat. it was a great series and i loved every minute of watching it..well maybe not every minute :) but..sometimes you just get beat. nothing you can do. i just hope that the astros make it to the series, otherwise i won't be able to watch it because i hate the cardinals and the sox.
