Woman on Top

PERVERTS!

I am talking about my career!  For any of you who have known me for any length of time, you know that I have ridden the proverbial rollercoaster with my current (and previous) position. 



Eat... My... Shorts.

 I have always been in sales, and with that comes a natural attitude and occasional problem with authority.  I have been fired a few times.  Layed off (not in a good way), and I have had "mutual" splits.  In my egotistical mind, "mutual" is me saying to hell with it when my employer hinted that I better get serious or get serious elsewhere.

This month has been a fabulous month for me professionally.  I have said thanks for my job at least 20 times this month, just because I wanted to burn the place down in the past and leave in a ball of fury.  Then of course, it would have been like a couple of other positions and I would never have admitted it- but held a grudge from afar just so I wouldn't have to take responsibility for my actions.  Instead, I talked myself into "sticking it out" and it has come to this....my life might be changing.  I have made multiple power moves in the last six months that have finally materialized into corporate relationships.  I landed the largest homecare company on a HUGE contract, for which a portion has already been paid.  Here is what I plan to do with my first commission check of substance:

• Scooter Service
• New Side Mirror/Blinker for my Scootie
• Visit to the eye doctor and new glasses (mine are five years old and have been sat upon at least 5 times)
• I'm am getting a bank account!  PLUS SAVINGS!!  I know...I'm impressive
• Replacement cell phone (if I am going to keep paying for the iphone plan I want the phone)
• I have two gifts that I need to get for my someone special but he is a regular reader...sorry beeb
• Then...if there is anything left over- I might just get a Pillow Top (I even have a BB&B coupon!)

So...about the whole "woman on top" thing...I am used to losing (sales term for not making as much revenue) to the men that I work with.  This has been classic across the board.  I was a heavy hitter, contender when I was working in Insurance, but I worked for the love of my life and would do anything he asked.  I worked to make him proud...

Now, I am not only beating my fellow Representatives, but I am beating the director of national accounts, whose title I have chosen not to capitalize because I am a lousy stinking winner :)

I better revel in it now, because if he catches back up next month then who will have egg on her face?!

Please leave comments with all of your congratulations...HA!
