New Job & Stuff
Tuesday, 20 July 2010 16:44Thought it was about time for a real life update!
I have a new job! I resigned at MBF on Wednesday 30th June as I'd been offered a job at Videopro. Basically my friend Sarah got me the job as she was taking a job at another company and pushed for me to take her position as it was totally the job for me. So I quit on the Wednesday and my last day was that Friday! Thank god because they were launching a brand new system at MBF the following Monday and I really couldn't have been arsed dealing with that on top of dealing with whiney customers.
So I am now an Account Co-ordinator for Product Sales at Videopro! As I was lucky enough to not have to give notice, I got to train with Sarah for a week before she went off to her new job which was awesome because I was basically by myself the following week. I just look after peoples orders once they've placed them with the sales guys, making sure they get there, get invoiced and all that sort of thing. It's also locatd in the Valley so I only have a 10 minute walk to get to work each day! Sarah left because she got her ideal job as an Account Manager and because this job just wasn't her thing. When he started it used to be super busy but they've got three of us doing that job now so I am confident I will love it here! Yay!
I'm also on a much better pay here so I'll finally be able to get myself back on track financially, I hope! It's amazing how a little more money in your pay makes such a huge difference to your life.
In other news, I am flat out organising the Brisbane Zombie Walk for 2010. We're so close to relaunching the website where people can register and make donations, on top of being a lot more comprehensive in general (the fewer emails asking me dumb questions the better). We've already been sponsored by a company for a massive amount of money so we're really going well so far. Shame it takes up so much of my life. We need to find peope to volunteer to give us a hand but most people just would rather turn up on the day and have fun. It's so much damn responsibility!
Aaaand that's all I can be bothered writing about now. here's hoping my next post won't be in another months time. Sorry about that :/
