who knew an office job could be cool?
i'm officially in my third week working as an administrative assistant for "Real Property Pros", an independent real estate broker. there are only 5 agents with the company, most of whom don't come in very regularly. and this is why my job is cool...
*i usually let myself in a few minutes after 9, no one to tell me i'm late, unforward the phone and turn on the coffeepot
*by 10 i'm done with my coffee and biscotti, checking my email, choosing a radio station or cd... (ok, i'm not a total slacker. i always look at my pile of work first to make sure there's nothing urgent, and i do work interspersed with this relaxing start to my day)
*in response to the toilet seat being up the other day, my boss said to me (and mostly to herself) "this is a woman's office"
*full time pay with part time flexible hours
*i get paid to do things like stain furniture, paint shelves, make coffee
*we have a lazy boy leather recliner sofa
*my boss told her daughter on the phone the other day, "no one else is here. just me and katie. katie doesn't count, she's like one of us, she's like family"
*conversations with janet and jawaid about europe, family, donuts, stupid computers, decorating, etc
*more money in one paycheck of part time than i got in two paychecks of full time at the pool
*often being alone in the office for a low stress work day
*having enough various odd jobs that i don't get bored
*diet coke in the fridge. always.
