I'm sorry...
For not writing about my day at work the past few days. I have been so tired with everything I have been doing after work that I get home exhausted and just wanna sleep but can't because I had to study. So I will catch you up and then try to explain what I actually will be doing. I am working for a company called NewPros. They are a company that sells new homeowners names and addresses to business so they can send them their advertisements directly with their names instead of just "current resident" or something to that extent. Anyways. I cold call these small to medium businesses and offer them our services. It will be $10 an hour or commissions whichever is higher. I'm aiming for the higher of course. Anyways. There are a bunch of haters in my training class. Each day we are given a challenge and test...well I have aced all of them and not everyone has done that...so they give me the dirty looks. And most aren't even talking to me know. They think I am kissing ass or something...WTH! Just because I am not goofing around in the class and actually listening when he is talking cannot be helped. I am trying to make the most of what I can do to make money. So today I walked into class and didn't say anything to anyone. I hate having to do that because you all know I love to talk. So today we took our first real calls and I was really nervous. I definately got hung up on by a few people and I was getting discouraged. Until I got my first sale...I actually had 2 sales in 3 hours. That is really good for a newbie. There were a few people in the class that also got a sale but they were still hating me cuz I had 2. But at least some of them were talking to me. I forgot to mention how the commission works. For every sale you make you get 80% of the price into points. Once you hit 900 points you start getting commission. Each point turns into $1 and as long as you hit 900 pts each pay period you get that in money. So today I got 150 in those 3 hours. So tomorrow when I am on for 5 hours I am gonna try hard to double that. There is a chick there that gets 3000 pts a pay period. So that is $3000 every 2 weeks. That's what I'm talking about right. And they also have like little bonus prizes during the day. And when I got my first sale they were giving $5 cash to each person that sold something...so I got $5. They weren't having anything with the 2nd one but I did get to bring my 2 balloons home and the boys were excited to see them. I am nervous about tomorrow as its out with all the other ballers. And what if I cack...lol. I will just do my best and whatever happens happens right.
I was late Monday and Weds. I was mad because the routes I took to get to work killed me. I made a good choice Tues and Thurs. I am trying to find the quickest way and avoid all traffic. I have discovered getting off on Sawmill and taking it to Powell Rd 750 gets me there within 30 mins from dropping Diego off. I am hoping to get a babysitter close by so I don't have to leave my house so early. Especially since work doesn't start til 830 and I am leaving at 710. Today I was really early with taking the back roads so maybe I will leave a few mins later and see what happens. Tomorrow is Anne's last day. Then if I don't find a close sitter Sheri is gonna watch Diego. Of course that is a mission but Sheri is sweet to do it for me all the same. I love her for that. I know she wants to get back to work too. One of the sucky things is that I don't get a paycheck til 11/3 which means a month without getting paid. Their pay periods for first time is way off the charts. But then every 2 weeks. Which is normal.
Well I have to go finish studying for my last test tomorrow. Talk to ya'll more later. Jennifer

You'll do great at the job and make lots of money. You're a people person and your personality will get you lots of sales. Good luck and I will see you Monday. Sorry you have to drive out here but until you get a back up plan I'm all for helping out. BTW Happy Birthday Diego! We had fun at your party today even though we were like 2 hours late! You know Jasmin had to work so it wasn't our fault. Tell Julian the Carne Asada was good!
