It was sort of cool

Want Avon…..contact me! 🙂
I mentioned very briefly that I had a class on Friday….in customer service to be exact.   I don’t work with customers and thought it was a waste of time for me.   I merely don’t work with customers that come up to a window, and I kind of realized that I am not as helpful with other departments as I should be as they are customers too.  I worked customer service in retail and food service for years, and I was very good at it.  
Anyway, the class was run by three people.   One worked on my floor and I know her, one worked on the 1st and we work with her, and the other guy I have no idea.   The second lady was the ype to run a really tight ship and very hard to please I suspect.   That can be a drag for her employees but it works for me as the person that is affected by how her employees work.   She actually told a story about me that worried me at first, and caused me to be embarrassed.   I detest being singled out and brought attention to, and that is why I was dreading he partnering off and group activity that they had.   She mentioned a time when she came into our office a short few months ago, and that I was the only person that bothered to smile at her and see what she wanted.   She told me that when I promote, she’ll give me a recommendation.   No one else in my office could ever ask her for anything.   I work in an office where praising is rare, but criticism is frequent from my boss.   This small compliment made me feel really good, but also kind of bad for my co workers.   Some of them really aren’t the friendliest types.  This woman even emailed me about the incident that day it happened, and I remembering wondering why she did that at the time.   Now I know.   I thanked her after the class and realized I need to be like she described more often, especially now having a sales type business on the side.   I could have done fairly well this time around with that, but I tend to over spend on me.   I need to take a little time off and just buy things I need for business.  
The housewarming party that BIL and wanna be SIL were throwing was cancelled.   They’re sick.   J can’t be around it as he needs to be as healthy as possible when he has surgery.   My sis and his parents are coming over tonight and we might go out for ice cream or something instead.   J found out that workers comp has not even approved the surgery, but that they do things often at the last minute.   So we shall see.   I want it over with and done.   I want him back at work, feeling good again.   He is suffering a little now.  
Kooky and her best friend were so sad to leave school yesterday, and to leave each other.  Kooky cried when she saw K’s truck pulling away.   It tugs at my heart strings this love that kids have so unconditionally.   K’s mother is having a rough time with the soon to be 4 year old because their love is strong, but Kooky and K very simply adore each other.   Kooky and I are much the same.   Love is strong, but we struggle sometimes and butt heads.   Kooky also adores some other kids there and said hi to T, who I am guessing is around 9 or older.   She said his name yesterday and he looked at her with an annoyed face and said "What?" while he was looking at a year book with some of his older friends.   She had no idea but I defended her a little and walked her away.   He has no idea how much she talks about him and his little brother, who shares her class.
