So rarely happens, didn't want to
forget to post it,
So a few weeks back I was job
scared, freaking out, kids were not helping any and either was my husband.
Out of a list of 75 work at home
agents my stats listed me as ranked 74.
This week due to changes, work at
home agents have to bid for shifts. If you were in the top 15 you only had to
pick 3 shifts and wait for the pick. Anyone under that had to bid for 15
different shifts and be prepared to work any of them in a week. I, being
unaware of the shift bid due to days off, was extremely ecstatic to find the
new list for the month of our rank, in my email---guess where I was--50th??
nope, 35th?? nope. Hell-20th nope. 14th!!!! 60 positions up. 60!!!! Up until
last week I was still on notice that one failed call, one excuse for not being
up to par and I was history.
Then I heard about shift bid, at
the last minute my coach finally answered me as to why on the bid for available
shifts my name was up top with about 12 other people, who had "special
schedules" due to kids, hours, etc (mine was because 3 years ago when I
went back to work I was unable to work more than 4 hours without having a
nervous breakdown).
I get to keep my schedule, didn't
have to bid, keep my benefits which take about 1/3 of my pay instead of
3/4(still really high co-pay but oh well) and moved my butt up from 74 and out
of a job to 14 and not scared of getting a schedule i can't work.
Thanks to my friends at work, you
all here(facebook), my kids and my husband. I already know exactly where I
would be without you and I picked my butt up then too. (this just reminded me
that today, oddly, I ended up telling a lady the "identity theft and
mismatched fingerprint card and ten years to fix it" story----the 2 min.
version that prompted her to stop feeling sorry for herself!)
