Work Work all week long!


I am now part of the world that has a full time job with benefits the whole nine yards. I have been working at the local newspaper in my hometown doing the classifieds page and being the receptionist since about the 2nd week of February. I was totally nervous about it, but now I get up every morning excited to go to work! 

I am the second to youngest girl that works here. There are about 20 people that work here but around my desk are some pretty amazingly crazy ladies Catherine, Carolyn and Kathy, (yes, I definitely got their names mixed up a lot in the beginning but hey I mean wouldn't you!)and my desk is right in the middle of all 3 of them. The have all been here for many years and could probably do their jobs blind folded! There was so much information and things that I had to learn to do and they were always so nice and willing to help me! Well now that I pretty much have everything under control now, we all gossip and goof around and I absolutely love it! 

There is Catherine, in charge of retail advertising who is the type she is always up for finding the best deals on anything and everything. We always know how she is going to sound when she answers the phone, it never changes from her upbeat happy voice, we mock her all the time and she just laughs. It seems she is always going somewhere with her hubby on the weekends so on Monday morning we are all dying to hear what adventure she went on the past weekend.

Next there is Carolyn, also in charge of retail advertising. She is the one that I consider that I can ask her advice on anything. We always know when her hubby calls up here to talk to her he has a suducing type tone to his voice and we always talk in that voice when he calls and she just laughs. She just bought a new Lake house so she is really excited about getting her house all fixed up, said she was going to have a party once it is so we can all come see it.

Then there is Kathy, she has a column that comes out every 2 weeks. Her last column was about all the pollen thats been going around and she made it into a poem that was so funny! She has one daughter that looks JUST like her it is crazy! You can just tell how close they are and how much they love each other. She also is one that always has an interesting story to tell about her past weekend.
Thats Kathy for ya!
I consider these ladies to be my 3 mom's at work. They are always making sure Chelsea and I are acting right and staying sweet. 

There is one other girl that I work with that is a year younger than me, thats Chelsea! We have never really talked before I started working here, but if someone just walked in and saw us you would never know that. It seems we are ALWAYS talking weather its about our guy problems, fashion, or when we are gonna go out for a girls night! Our desk are right across from each other so we are constantly looking to the side of our computers so we can talk and gossip!
And my girl Chelsea! She would kill me if she knew I put this on here! :)
In the end I absolutly love my new job and I cant say that for alot of my past jobs. Everyone is everyone's friend and there is no drama and thats what I LOVE!!! I can't wait to see what else is in store!
