Stuff

I just thought I would just post a few of the things going on in the Richardson household. Nothing really exciting, but since no one is forcing you to read this, I dont mind so much then :)

1) Everyone at work is talking about their upcoming vacations, and it just makes me sad because we were supposed to have our fun 9 day vacation to California, but no, I had to go switch jobs. Stupid me..

2) Speaking of vacations, Ian will be taking one in June. He is gonna head back to Btown and see some of his college friends (who are also all coming in for the trip). He will be gone from June 11th to the 15th (I think those are the dates, I'm supposed to take him to the airport but he wont get me his trip info). I will be at home chillin with the doggies.

3) On the subject of Ian, he will also be going to Missouri on business for 1 week. We still arent sure the exact dates, but most likely right before he leaves for IN. So there is a chance he will be gone for almost 2 weeks in a row.

4) Back to work, but this time mine. We just got a new GM, he has some goals and doesnt mess around, but I think he will be good for the property. I was supposed to have my 1 on 1 with him today, but he got behind and its been pushed to tomorrow. I am looking forward to sitting with him and getting to know him a little better and of course for him to know me a little better too. Coming in, he didnt seem to get the best view of the catering team (he thought we were a little too serious, which is so funny), so we are looking forward to changing his view of us.

5) On the work subject again, I won the sales contest last week and won a giftcard to Starbucks! I am very excited that I won, but not soo much about where the giftcard is too because as you might know, not a big coffee fan. But it was great to win because I'm still new, my GM is trying to figure out who he needs to fire to make a point, and because it was based on how many new leads we got, how many contracts we got out and how many we got back over a 2 day period, and I was only there on one of the days (since I'm always off on Wednesday). Go me!!

6) I changed the background and stuff on the blog, like it??

7) So my days off are Sunday and Wednesday, so its rare for me to work more than 3 days in a row. Well, I am now going on day 6 before Im off again on Wednesday, and I'm not liking it. I keep trying to tell myself its ok because I'll also have Friday off this week, but I think I would have rather not worked both Saturday & Sunday to be honest.

Well, I could write more, but Im gonna start making dinner since its almost 8pm. I'll try to post some more updates on one of my days off this week.
