What I love most about my Job!
So, in case you haven't heard, I got my first ever REAL job this summer. I work at BYU Independent Study at the Front Desk. Basically my job description is that people call in, I say, "BYU Independent Study this is Marie, how can I help you today?" and then the people tell me their little spill and then I help them with whatever problem they have. I do this every Monday thru Friday 8 am to 5 pm - and I love it. So, in honor of my cool co-workers who have been encouraging me to blog more than once a year, I dedicate this blog. :)
What I love about my job:
The Sticky Notes in vibrant neon-ish colors
The scanner that I send emails on
Sending Faxes to People
My head-set
My Lunch Breaks
When I take their credit card information and they say the card expires in " 'O10"
The awesome people I work with and the interesting conversations we have when we're not on the phone.
My awesome Supers and the relaxed work place
Talking to people from all over the world and listening to their awesome accents, including a man from Australia, A man named Raja from the UK (his accent was especially cool as it was indian/british), and of course, The Georgians from that southern state who, especially if they are black, speak their own version of English.
Looking up proctors in London, China and sending packages to Jerusalem and thinking that I am cool. :)
When people are hanging up and say, "Love you too, Bye."
When you're taking their credit card info and you miss a number cuz and they you say, "can you repeat that for me?" and then they repeat the whole credit card number extremely slow like you are a slow-witted animal ("8......9.....4....5.... you go that right?" - yep, i got it)
Or when they want you to confirm after every number (8 - yep - 9- uh-huh - 6- yes - 7 - ok -......)
Or that slightly awkward silence that comes after you say "how can i help you?" and then you realize they already hung up....

......more to come :)
