ok thank you

i know i know, ive been embarrassingly pathetic about blogging, but i have been repremanded a couple of times, so i figured i would update.
well as you know, in the last month i have been in Africa, California, Colorado and Utah.
it would take too long to sum up what all has happened, so i think ill just let you in on the current.
as you may know, i work at a heating and air conditioning company as a dispatcher. it sounds super serious, as if i am dispatching coppers that are saving peoples lives or something, but its not that eternally influential. however, as angry as some customers get when you dont meet their agenda, price range, and schedule, you would think that keeping their house at a comfortable 76 degrees is a life or death matter.
and though on occasion, i do get told where to go when i die, i also get to deal with alot of really nice people. i work with jeremy bair's sister (i know, small world), some hilarious technicians, and some customers that are quite polite and/ or comical.
my personal favorites are the old ones. every couple of days i get to talk to older gentlemen that call me "missy" or "sweetie" and tell me how nice i am and what a great job i am doing (hey we all need a little affirmation sometimes). and then i get to talk to the ones that are utterly deaf. i can tell when they switch the phone to the other ear thinking that they will be able to hear out of that one better. but they dont. they ask me to repeat things a million times, and when they get tired of that, they just say "ok thank you" over and over and try to hang up. i end up having to basically yell while everyone in the office gets a kick out of my inability to communicate the fact that i will have a technician to the customer's house between 1 and 3 pm!
im sure this is not very funny to you, but if you could see/ hear me, im sure you would laugh; everyone else does. and if you were the only one in the office with three people on hold at 7:30 am, you would be writing about the fact that conversations with the elderly are the highlights of your day :)
