Day Two

I made it through day two of training.  It’s interesting because I’ve been going through training and going through my day firmly believing that I can handle what I’m about to do solo starting Monday and that it’s not that bad and that I can easily deal with it.  I get in my car at the end of the day and I don’t want to go back in the morning and want nothing to do with working in a call center.  But as a result, it got me thinking again about why I’m dissatisfied with where things are going and what I want/can do about it.  Which then brought me to thinking about going back to school.  It’s an inner battle I’ve raged off and on since I graduated in December of 2007.  I’ve always thought about going back to school, mostly likely Law School. I knew when I graduated that I didn’t want to go right away. When I graduated I was pretty burnt out so I didn’t go right away.  But it’s a thought I’ve had every once in awhile since then, where I just stop and think about what it would mean to go back.  Each time I do, I think about classes and what that would mean.  And this time, I discovered that I miss classes.  There are a lot of other things to think about, but at the very least I know I don’t want to be in a call center.  I want something more than that.  Given that this week is Fast Sunday for our stake (since Stake Conference was last week), it’s a great opportunity to me to fast over all this and figure out where I’m supposed to be.  I trust that if Heavenly Father wants me elsewhere or doing something else, He’ll help provide a way for it to happen.  So there’s lots on my mind there.  I think at the very least, I want to start looking for a different job – I’m really not interested in a call center job.

In other news, Obama fever was evident today as he visited Madison.  Man is Air Force One a big plane!  And our governor got to ride back to Washington on Air Force One.  But it was cool to have a sitting president visit the area.

I’ve been working on the same idea of needing to further my education to move on to a real career. It’s hard to make that kind of decision once you’ve settled into a life. The Boeing VC-25A is an interesting aircraft.

That is a great end quote. 🙂
