Today I am thankful for the job that I have. I used to work for a bank and loved the people I worked with, but it was too stressful for me! Luckily for me one of my friends knew I didn't enjoy the bank and told me that there was a position open where her husband worked. I was in the process of going back to school to be a teacher at the time and needed a less stressful job. He called and I went in and interviewed and got the job! I would be doing Accounts Payable for a franchisee of Taco Bell. I really enjoyed this job. I enjoyed it so much that I stopped going back to school and decided to stay on there full time.
In 2007 they sold the company to another franchise. Luckily, they kept me on and now I do payroll for 34 restaurants. We have KFC, Taco Bell and Long John Silvers. I never in a million years would have thought that I would be doing this job. It fell into place and has just been the perfect job.
My boss is a great guy that we've ended up being great friends as well. We've been though a lot together and just click. It's nice to click with coworkers!
I've met great friends there too. I told you about Susie. She used to work there too doing Accounts Payable. I was NOT excited when she decided to work there. I didn't think we would get along. Ha! I was so wrong. Susie and I are such good friends. In fact she came by today and had lunch with all of us and it was just like old times.
When Susie's replacement came I was a nervous wreck that we would not get along either. So far so good. We have really gotten along great and I think that it will be a great work situation.
I am so very thankful for a workplace that works with me and not against me. For a job that gives me time off when I need it. A job that is so very flexible when it comes to my family and looks out for my best interest. I am very thankful to have this job and my work family.
I can't imagine why you would be worried that you wouldn't get along with someone?!...you're such a sweetie! Who wouldn't get along with you?
