Employment Sucks!!!

Ok I tried everyone and I can't say I quit but let's just say the frustration level is at a boiling point. I had what I thought and was fed to believe was this great job 100% commission and basically making your own schedule. Training should be 5 weeks (in addition to the class I took and test I passed to get my license) and if you follow through things will be great etc. Ok I did that. I did more than that. Thee were 5 newbies and now 3months later there are 2.

Out of those 2 who has had any deals? I have had several deals that have fallen apart because the office is so busy when you ask for assistance instead of walking you through it, its either go see if so and so can help you or just do this. So I have lost a few from lack of attention and time length before I get an answer. So for me I was not as pressed financially as the rest. So they all claim I am going to be great etc its just a matter of time, yeah, yeah, yeah.

So I guess some of the other newbies started crying because hell by now normal people if they had any $$ would be broke for sure. so they decided to offer us a salary. Whoop de do!!! Not to me because I know salary means you now have to report in and be accountable. And the salary in all honesty after taxes and social security is nothing to me. I was making that much when I was contracted to VT and only had to work like 2 days a month! So now you seriously want me to drive 35miles each way and be there like 5days a week 8 or 8+ hours a day?

So my motivation has begun to wander and I get to work but somewhere between 10-noon but again that was never the plan! I would not have signed on. I could get a job same pay if that is all I wanted that is a whole lot closer to home.

Now they hit me with "We all think you are going to be amazing" blah blah blah 'but we want to change your position again'... Huh what the f**k? Now they want to drop the salary by 15K and up the commission but make me the manager's assistant basically. They call it coordinator I say assistant for 12months. Now you know if I am the managers assistant I will now really have to be in the office daily without question and to me at the moment commission is like air because I cant see it!LOL:) so no matter what they are giving me on commission it doesn't commute. If I had the free time before to cultivate the business according to their play book and it hasn't grown so far now you want me to take a pay cut and 'learn the business' for 12months. No one ever said it would take that long.

I can admit it. I think I made a mistake trying to venture outside of my field or maybe I should've never believed the hype they sold me during the interview process but I am frustrated for sure. I hate to be a quitter but this is some for real BS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! One thing is for sure though I am still not doing any videos. I have learned through all this I can get a job with my eyes closed and to most society standards I think that is middle class pay but that is not what I am looking for. I need career and higher level pay. So I am still there but I will be 'respectfully' declining the latest scenario so we will see what happens.

The Real World Really Really Really Sucks!!!!

Yeah Culpepper is OUTTA HERE!!!!

Ok they haven't said it 'officially' but the moment I and all true Dolphin fans have been waiting for ..........................Get that dead weight off the field!!!! But alas we still have Trent Green hmmm can't say I am jumping up and down about that one.

Ok had to add since had a comment. I have never liked Culpepper long before the Vikings issue at a party he was not even in attendance. I didn't think he was anything when he was at UCF and there was all that controversy about him not getting enough accolades becuase he was black. He was mediocre at best then and now he is a lemon on a quarterback with a career ending injury and even without the injury he only had one, count it, one good season. Stop living is the past this dude is and has been washed up!

Mr. Vick lets see...............if his on the field performance does not overshadow his off the field antics i predict this will be his LAST season as a falcon PERIOD! I personally love Mr. Vick but enough is enough. When is the ship gonna come in on the 100 mil. pay out??? He definitely needs a chaperone. I think I will submit a packet offering my athlete chaperone services to these knuckle heads! I love Vick but again if you can't do more on the field than off the field there is a distinct conflict of interests that affect your job and these need to be addressed this season or go sit at the house with Marcus.

Thanks Gentlemen!!!

Well I have received some very good applications but if there is no email address how can I respond? So if you would email me privately that would work!!! Plus I had a very interesting idea presented and I need to tweak it a bit but basically a contest and the winner will get either a night or weekend to wine me dine me etc. Details to follow for sure.

Now on to the NBA Finals. I am so tired of San Antonio!!! Can you say BORING!!! And am I the only one who wonders how Tony Parker pulled Eva Longoria? Can anyone understand what the hell he says when he speaks?!

Is LaBron ready to be MJ reincarnate? Hell no and I mad that they are even making that comparison at all.

Well right now I am back to taking applications and nothing too heavy. Actually this JOB has me so tired at the end of the day I cant function but I am still there. I will admit its a mental fight every morning to get me out the door but I have a time frame I would give it before I make any moves . So if you can't keep the rules you set for yourself that's pretty bad!LOL

Also if you would like to have any topics addressed let me know!

Kisses,
