what more I could carry ....

three months ago I get a very demanding job ....

No ... it's not that demanding, perhaps I am just pressured because I am working alone.
I worked with a project where I do all the things. It is hard and challenging.

At first I really felt tired, moving with the changes and keeping up with the pace.
I always get new scripts new campaigns... that means you need to put new things in your mind ASAP and bugle them down to be an effective marketing tool....

Honestly it turned out to be very stressful at first .... handling 6 different Campaigns in one Project (Appointment Setting, Order Entry, Closing Sales, Free Membership Set Up, Travel Request, and the side duties to keep the files systematized.)
is never easy.

But I worked hard, I adjusted to be alone, I eat alone, I chill alone, I stop and start alone. But I am learning, I handle my own time, I discipline myself, I ran my own team ... yeah I am my team! I learned to be strong.

And I moved with the changes I have to do good .... I tried getting a hard voice (which sometimes works)... most of the time I brainstorm with my own brain ...
Yeah I learned more of my Intrapersonal... Quick Decision making .... Risk Taker .... and a Comedian of my own.

With all that I got a good figure of appointments made. And a reasonable sales ... (Hard Selling .... I do outbound sales .... and it's very hard.... But I sold two tickets...).

After all these changes and acceptance .... I learned to love it, in just a short time .... I want to do it ... I come to work very early and excited to work as someone who represents Worldwide Travel Savings the only staff from the Philippines... I enjoy talking to people on the phone ( even if I get lots of machines..).

Plus I got a very good American Employer, she taught me a lot of things (still teaching), and gave me a lot of reasons to love my Job. I like her mentality, very far from Filipino Crab Mentality .... And I like how she organized everything ... a well-ordered woman.... She is very cool too... I enjoy having her on my computer
chatting and laughing ... I had so much fun working with her.

And just when I find it comfortable and wanting the Job, I found out a very sad line she sad "He says they normally cancel a campaign when that happens, but he is willing to give me one more week to see how these leads work out. If they don't work out, I will lose you and my contract. I am deeply sorry... You are my best person.... I need to hire more from your office not give up!!! I need to make this work. I promise I am working hard to try. I am making calls myself to help out."

The initial response to that is crying ... (I cannot make calls this morning so I end up writing this) ... I just cried ... I am thinking that I will not only loose the account (project) but also a good employer like Rosemarie.

I want to move on, it could be easy, but for me it's sad and hard because I learned to love my work, and I love it now, I worked hard to make it work .... but still I got this thing .... I feel something so heavy inside my heart ... I will missed .... my work....(I have one more week to try if this will really work....I will do my best and pray for the best...)
