One of Many Reasons Why I Like My Job

I really do like my job. Here is a perfect example of a really good day on the job for me.

I had a meeting at 6:30 AM. (No, that is not the good part.) My manager is a little crazy sometimes and is all about the meetings. We used to have to have a meeting on Fridays from 2:30-5:00 too, on top of our Monday morning meeting which started at 7:00 originally and didn't get over till after 9:00. We all told him that we don't want to have all of our Friday taken up by a two and a half hour meeting because not only does it cut into our selling time, it makes those people who have to travel north on I-15 not be able to get home until past 6:00. Ergo, the 6:30 am meeting was born. I'm not a morning person, so this isn't an ideal time for me, but I only live about 10 minutes away from the office and I love not having a meeting on Friday so it all works out.

Anyway, back to the good part. After the 6:30 meeting, I ended up staying at the office until about noon getting my schedule set up for the week. At about 12:15, I was at home eating lunch and relaxing. I had a little plan of what I really wanted to do with the rest of the day, but I figured I should probably do something else work-oriented first so I took an invitation to one of my SLC clients for our company golf tournament. People always love free golf so I felt like I did a good deed. Then, I drove to the other end of town and paid my car payment and was home by 3:00. By 3:15, I was sitting by the pool at my condo reading the latest copy of Us Weekly (--I didn't subscribe to it, they just send it to me every week......who knows?). It was about 90 degrees outside and absolutely BEAUTIFUL! I had the whole pool to myself for almost 2 hours. I wish I could do that every day. Umm....I don't need to mention that I didn't actually make a single dime today (because I didn't sell anything), but it was totally worth it.
