Yesterday, was my last day of work before I went in I cried myself a river. I was really sad to leave that job and had contemplated this move for a long time. What I have realized is that it is because of this Career opportunity that I have confidence in getting a Business Certificate and/or another degree such as Counseling or Christian Education. It was at my most desperate hour God came through for me and blessed me with this incredible Job. I don't like calling it a job though because to me it was more than a job it opened my eyes to other possibilities. If you know me... Then you know I'm one of the most stubborn people you will ever meet. Once my mind is made up good luck changing it. But for once I'm changing it big time by getting a business certificate. Over and Over again I think about what I want to do with my life and its always been teaching because I do love working with children. But I found that I also love being in sales/marketing.
When I went for my interview I told my manager that I was looking for more experience than I already had in sales. So that I can possibly run my own business someday. Little did I know I would actually still feel that way after this career opportunity.Now that I have worked for Dish Network I know for a fact that I want my Business Certificate and will work very hard to get it. A lot of people I know can have days where they are just down on my ideas and have this way of making it seem like I am a lost cause.And a lot of the time I have listened and I have held back from my full potential but not anymore! If their is pain in my life I will always try to smile through it and just be strong. In a world full of weak people I believe we need strong people. Someone once told me although I'm unsure they believe this anymore but they had said "The great thing about me is I refuse to give up on what I want" Well I really didn't think anything about that because I have a hard time accepting compliments after so many people bringing me down. But it is true I do refuse to give up and I definitely will achieve anything I put my mind too. I do not always get what I want but I do try my best.
Anyways back to Dish Network I shook one of the Directors of Dish Network yesterday. It was a privilege and an honor and I told him that and he said the same to me. Then he told my trainee to listen to me because I have helped the company a great deal with sales and that I am great at what I do. Only they will know whether she will stay or go after a while but no matter what I hope whoever is in that store with that position that they don't take it for granted and cherish it as much as I have.
Training is a lot of fun it has its ups and downs. But I think the person I trained will remember what I told her I have confidence in her. We had been talking for weeks before she got the job and I was really excited to give her the opportunity If it doesn't work out with her I just hope she takes it as an experience and finds something else that she would love to do. Funny story: I was quizzing her on presentations and i put my hand up for a high five and she flinched like i was going to hit her we laughed so hard about it lol I would never hit a trainee lol. This wasnt my first time training I have trained people in Childrens Ministry, Cashiering, and taking care of kids at a daycare. This by far was the most challenging to me though because I only had 4 days and I had to go over a lot more information. I was joking with her at the end of the night I asked her if she wanted to give me another presentation and she said "no" then we both laughed. Previously, I had her give me 4-8 within four days I just wanted to make sure she had the right knowledge and I felt like a friend helping her.My intentions were to make her shine and look good to the company. I was probably a little too stern at times but I also knew I could push her to her full potential and the last time I quizzed her and everything I trained her she did really well :-)
well I cant say goodbye Dish Network because who knows maybe one day I will be working for this company again. :-) So see you later Dish Network Thanks again for everything! What an amazing experience this has been! Because of you I have confidence to live up to my full potential and I know I can work hard in whatever job I get next :-) 9 more days and my new life begins :-)
