Conversation
I talked to Jo Ann the other night. She is my reiki teacher. I hadn't talked to her in a very long time and I am very grateful I had the chance to say hello.
It was interesting telling her my latest news. Its like this almost, reliving what happened. Sometimes life goes by so fast, when you stop to catch people up you learn a lot about yourself.
I told her about how I came to Michigan and then about the whole job saga. I have definitely had my share of rough days out here, so it was good to get a new positive prospective. Along with advice and the willingness to help in anyway she can, I guess it is just nice to know someone cares.
I told her how good it was to hear the positive words she had for me, and how she always seems to be able to say the right thing at the right time. She made a comment about how I have here imprint (since she was the one to attune me.)
This conversation started what would be a very interesting week.
I called H&R Block on Monday to follow up about working there this tax season. They called back on Wednesday and said that I was signed up for Orientation Thursday morning. The also went ahead to schedule me for 9 more orientation sessions, meaning Mondays and Fridays will be 9am to 10pm workdays. Fun times.
So I go to H&R Thursday morning and do the orientation thing, and once the presentation stuff was done I had a chance to talk with David Rayall a little bit more. When I asked him about the new commission equation he looked at my numbers from last year and said "Damn, you had a good year last year.'' He was very surprised to say the least. This did not sit well considering I had hoped on nearly doubling my output this year. He said he will do what he can to put me in a busy location so that I can have a chance to at least get near what I did last year. We will see what happens.
I also asked him about a clause in the employee contract which states that I can not offer bookkeeping services while I am employed by H&R Block. I asked him if that meant there are Bookkeeping services the block offers. He said that is what that means and also that there is a bookkeeping position open in Dearborn which is not too far away. I have a name and number to call but have not done it yet.
That was pretty much all the Block news for now.
At GC we had a monthly meeting. Vince talked a lot about what it means to work at Guitar Center. He talked about how "every musician wants to work at guitar center." He said now is the time to prove to him why he hired us. Lots of tough questions and looking inside yourself type stuff. It didn't really affect me all that much, so I guess that means I am doing the right thing.
Tomorrow is Monday. I have Block in the morning 9-12 go to gC 1 -10. I have to figure out how to sign up for the last class that I need at the block and call the guy about the bookkeeping job in Dearborn.
Should be interesting.
