Firsties!!!!
May I say that after this day finishes, I am going to the gym and then I am doing this

Actually hasn't been a bad first day at all. It's just the first day is always a bit crazy and wild and chaotic and since our scheduling computer seems to have gone mental it's been more of this than usual. I also hate the whole syllabus/intro thing and I like to get to the real teaching part...so hooray for tomorrow!

oh double posted ickiness...

interesting imponderable Kelkhil- being judged by older/youger siblings achievements or lack thereof?

I will say my little sister has always been gorgeous, organized, and the cleanest kid on the planet ( organized her own closet by age 3)and sometimes it felt a bit like I was not as great, but now that we've grown, I can't imagine life without her:)

Okay, I'm thinking that I might join in on this one, so I'll lurk a bit and put in my two cents if need be.

MSG, a bubble bath sounds like a wonderful idea!

RugBug, when you get over here...let me apologize for my post. Had I actually read the part in parentheses, I would have realized you already excluded me. My excuse is that my brain is missing.
The funny thing is that the CSR's actually do more work...I know, someone else figured that out a long time ago...

Your excuse is you just spent last week in licensing classes. Blech, man are those evil and BOOOOOOORING.

CSRs do all the crap work, Producers have to know how to shmooze. I could never shmooze, even though I have the knowledge. Hate shmoozing. My licensing class teacher kept trying to get me to sell. Said I would be a natural...but I just think it was 'cause he thought I was cute with a good smile. He for certain didn't know that I can't sell a lifeboat to a drowning man...nor do I care to try. But the money aspect certainly sounded good.

Sibling rivalry? Hmmm...

Everything is a competition with my brother. Thing is I'm not competing with him, nor rubbing his nose in anything. I've never considered myself particularily talented in any area. I manage.

I don't consider myself a proud person. I don't gloat about my accoplishments nor do I lord my belongings over anyone. So where does this competition come from?

Yep, the class was all that and more...add an hour and a half drive both ways in traffice, and you can see why it took a weekend to recover. The good news is that I will be taking my test Friday morning. The bad news is that I will then go back to work for awhile, go home, and then head the opposite direction for D*C... Gonna be a looong day!
I am looking forward to being able to deal with clients in an "official" capacity now, though...I always hated having to get an Agent to help me along.
