I guess I lied

My last post I though I really didn't have much new to report on in the work department. That was totally not true, lots of things have been happening. I don't know how exciting they are to the rest of the world, but it's been making work tolerable for me. Which is a really good thing, because for a while there I was really in a funk.

Our office took over another small property last week. Just a tiny little 36 plex that had been pretty much neglected by the previous manager. We took it over with six vacant apartments last Tuesday, which is like 83% occupancy (in apartment management this is really bad). By this Tuesday we'd leased two of them and even managed to get one of them moved in already. This makes us look really good, and our boss even said we looked like "heros" for leasing them so quickly. We still have a long way to go, but it's defiantly a start. I think I need a challenge at work to really be happy.

Also, we've had lots of fun little things going on at work. Last Wednesday we had a "Spa Day" for all the management/leasing staff. I got to get a massage and we all hung out and did a little gift exchange. It was a lot of fun. Tomorrow we're having a bowling party thing. With all these fun little outings during work hours, and the busyness of the new property, my work weeks have been flying by. Which again, makes me very happy.

I guess I just wanted to share a little bit of my rekindled excitement for my job. I'm so bipolar about my work these days, you just never know how I'm going to feel about it. Still thinking about the travel/tourism class... I think I am going to give it a shot, just need to get a little extra money before I can. Which could take a while.

Well, I'm getting sleepy and I think I'm done ranting and raving. Good night.

P.S. finally got a follower. :D It made my day. Thanks Sunny!
