Promotion

I am so happy to say that this past weekend I got my first promotion and a 10% raise in my pay! How great is that considering that I only started working there in August? Every couple of months we have seminars that are held at beautiful hotels and we have speakers, awards and celebrations. This time it was held at the Sheraton Hotel in Mahwah, in a huge room where there were about 300-400 people. Everyone that got a promotion or was the best at something got to walk across the stage and get their promotion or award. I got to walk on stage twice. Once was for the newly licensed people and the second time was to get my promotion. It was very exciting and rewarding.

I can’t wait until the convention in June. Our convention is being held at the Georgia Dome in Atlanta, Georgia. We try to get everyone from our team to go because we are all very close and its fun. We get a nice hotel room, flight and seminars all day that educate us more about the company, where it is going and how to improve our business’s. We still have to figure out who’s going to be rooming with who and who is leaving when. I will definitely bring pictures to show.

Yesterday I was talking to Travis, the new SGA Vice-President and my ex-secretary and he made me very happy. I was happy because he told me that Berkeley got a shuttle to the grocery store for the dorming students! When I was president we had an issue where students during the weekend had trouble getting food because the cafeteria was not open on the weekends. Students could not get food at the cafeteria and if they could not drive then they could not go to the grocery store. Now they are able to go food shopping and the shuttle will take them there! That is just great.

I have been planning on going to their meeting or an event for the longest time but every time I do, something comes up and I’m unable to make it. It drives me crazy. I can’t wait until the spring and all the spring activities start happening. I remember last year we were planting flowers, decorating the student center and much more. I miss the days of being involved with everything.
