Welcome to DMSI!
I have been at my new job for a week now and it is wonderful. I enjoy getting up in the morning and going to work instead of dreading the day. The people that I work with are really great. Everyone is so nice and helpful. It is also such a relaxed environment compared to what I have been dealing with. I am actually doing something that I really enjoy. I am working in Accounting which has always been something that I was passionate about. I know what you are thinking, that has to be boring. For me, it isn't. It is a great way to spend the day. I guess I have a lot of my father in me when it comes to numbers.
Before I go, let me tell you about my first day. The actual work part was great. As I was leaving for the day, I walked through the guard shack and was headed to my car when it happened. A white minivan backed right into my driver's side door. Right there in front of me. I couldn't believe it. I remained pretty calm and began to even chuckle about it. I knew immediately that my husband would not be laughing about it though. The guy pulled his car away from mine and got out and said a few choice words to himself because he knew he had really messed up. He is Latin American and did not have a valid ID. He only had one from his country. I was surprised he didn't just drive off. He didn't really speak English only a few words, most of the four letter. The security guard came with me to make sure that the guy did not try to run for it. We waited on the police. At this point, I started thinking, wow, I hope he has insurance. Luckily, he was not the owner of the vehicle. The actual owner of the vehicle did have insurance, thank the Lord. So now our car is in the body shop and I have a rental. The rental is actually nicer than both of our cars. It is a 2007 Chevrolet Trail Blazer with leather seats. It also has a heated driver and passenger seat. That is really cool considering it has been quite cold lately. They say our car will be ready possibly Thursday but more likely Friday. By then we will probably have made a down payment on a Trail Blazer of our own. You should of seen Wayne's eyes light up when he got to look in and sit in the SUV.
Well I guess you can say, I have had an eventful week. But, I still love my new job.
Until next time . . .
