Life Changes

So, I've been thinking long and hard about my life lately. I've come to a decision about it. I'm going back to school. yes you heard me right. I'm going back, and I'm going to become a hair stylist. I've wanted to do it for years. My sister went to cosmetology school, but she gave up on her dream. I've been wandering aimlessly for the last 12 years, from job to job, never truly satisfied with what I was doing. I know Beauty school cost money, but I will figure a way to make it happen. I want to do this for me. It's the first and only real thing that has inspired me to continue my education. I'll keep everyone updated on my progress.

Jackson Hewitt is NOT the place to go to get your taxes done anymore

So I went to Jackson Hewitt to get my taxes done because they have always been good to me. Well this year they switched banks so they no longer do instant refunds or next day, you HAVE to wait 72 hours, or so I was told. Well it has been 97 hours since my taxes were done and they are now telling me that Saturday and Sunday do NOT count as days anymore. Really? SO, now I HAVE to wait till tomorrow.

The Jack (that's what I call people who are jack a$$e$ to me) in the office then decides to yell at me about how wrong it was for me to cause them to lose several customers. I told them it was wrong of them to lie to me and tell me 72 hours when it is going to take 120 hours. If my money is not there tomorrow, I will be sitting outside their offices till I have to go to schoo

I Hate My Job... Old post recycled from 8/24/14 AKA The ugly truth about customer service over the phone

I know no one wants to hear me complain about my job, so this is your only WOB warning. This is a major rant. So major I wrote in in word before I copied it to Blogger. This is why I hate my job. I used to love helping people; my job makes me feel bad about it now. I sit in a cubicle, in a row of twelve cubicles, staring at a small monitor, connected to a slow running machine, in a warehouse filled with these same rows. The only change is the daily move from row to row so you never sit in the same place twice in a week. This is supposed to be meant for moral, so we don’t get bored with our jobs. They constantly upgrade the software we use to make our jobs “easier” and “more efficient”, when in reality all it does is make it harder to attain these high standards they set because they refuse to spend the money to upgrade the hardware required to run the software. This is what we as reps must maintain for goals daily, weekly, and monthly: Average Handle Time (AHT) – no more than 530

Dream board

My sister Carol asked me what is on my dream board today. Today it is to complete my pre-reqs so that I will get accepted into the Nursing program at my school. I also dream of one day being able to speak four other languages (at least) two of which I will take classes for in the next year, Spanish and ASL (American Sign Language).
