Just Another Day

So I have decided to change once again my blog template... My previous one was messed up and I have given up trying to get all the text lined up properly... right now, I'm still having problems trying to put my cool counters to appear properly, and to come up with a better quality picture.

Watched Harry Potter and The Goblet of Fire last Thursday. Goblet is my favorite book in the series and the first book I've read as well. I remember borrowing it from Unwell. There were a lot of missing scenes from the movie that might be really essential for the next part of the series. They solely focused on the Tri-wizard tournament. I enjoyed some of the scenes. It was good seeing it live on the movie screen, but then again, I would prefer to read the book. The movie ticket is expensive. Almost 200 bucks...the seats were comfy..and I was surprised to discover that the armrests at Greenbelt can actually be lifted. I was surprised to find my right one raised up...I'm really not sure who made it that way, and why. I'm pretty sure that it was done half way the movie is run.

Well, the Troopers are planning out an outing this coming thanksgiving weekend. It's this week but so far, plans are a bit vague. For one thing, outing means spending money...and budget is kinda tight with some us right now. For me, well, there is the incentive.... I really hope our outing will go through since it's a waste of such a long weekend...

Can't believe that November is coming to a close soon.. it's December and Christmas decors are popping everywhere...not to mention Christmas songs being played in department stores and malls too. Time to plan my Christmas shopping list and of course, I'm counting on the 13th month bonus that I will soon receive. The lack of one thing, another can fill in.

One more time

So, Alex took my ranting seriously about the previous logo/postcard. He made me another one. Well, it's more simple, but classic. Unlike the other one where it's a bit tacky with all the flowers.

I actually went to the gym last Saturday. Keith convinced to me to go and try out a free day's worth of workout at Slimmer's World. Now, my joints are aching. We spent the whole day there, and I was actually pooped afterwards, I can barely walk.

I might consider enrolling but I figured that the location is a bit way off from the route I usually take to go home... maybe this is a sign.

There's something bugging me as I trudged down Ayala Ave that Saturday early evening with Keith. I pondered over that thought quietly as I made my way home, up to this moment. I don't know... Grrr..I really hate this feeling! Once again, I have to learn to keep a promise to myself.

Great Expectations

I'm counting the days till December comes, till Christmas comes, till the year ends and I have to decide where to go from here...

Guess what... I was being awarded E-rep Excellence Award, first ever for our account.
As you know, I've been selling internet service for more than a month now. I was awarded Top Performer about 3 weeks ago... Now, I was chosen as E-rep Excellence Awardee for the month. I was not really expecting that award anymore because I was not able to meet the conversion rate of 35%. I only got 34. My sched ad is not that great. Because of my 8pm shift, I was late like every other day. My AHT is totally a dud. I have the highest in my team. The only thing that I can actually be proud of, are my QA scores which I have to say are so far a perfect 100! I was surprised when Jimbo came over and congratulated me in advance for that award. Then he began to tell me that I was the one they nominated for that award, even if I have a lot of flaws in my stats. I actually made a committment of course, that I would not be late anymore since my shift is already from 9-6. I was able to come to work on time for a straight week! The only thing left to work on is my AHT. Jimbo is putting a bit of a pressure on me to lower my AHT. So, I've been trying but today I ended around 13:28. I am targeting atleast maybe around 10:30 by next week. Then, both Jimbo and Kris told me that they will start delegating additional tasks for me to prep me up for (gasp!) the SUPERVISORY LEVEL! Jimbo even gave my first task which is to make a report for the outcome of this week, to be submitted this coming Monday. Talk about the pressure. I really have to live up to the expectations of my supervisors and my co reps as well. I really have to learn to exercise authority now, they said. I'm really happy of course that they are believing in me, but I just hope that I wil be able to prove that I really have what it takes to be an E-rep Excellence Awardee and maybe, just maybe, a future sup even.

See, Alex made me a sort of, a logo postcard commemorating my achievement. How sweet of him... Although it's kinda too girly for my taste and too flowery (what the hell is he thinkin'?), and the pictures that he used were not the best ones ( I have better pics!), I still appreciate it. (I have to! hehehe!) Really, I do.

Of course the rest of my friends were happy for me. Thanks to Jaggy for the words of encouragement.

By the way, I am Php6000 bucks richer..... Thanks to PeoplePC! hehehe!
