Hey chickas, how you all doing?
I know I haven’t uploaded a blog in the last few days but I had my first proper day at work on Friday and it exhausted me! We had learnt a tone of stuff in the morning and then got put out in the field to try out our skills! It was a very weird day, I can assure you of that!
Anyway… let me tell you what happened. So my group got sent out to a village (if you can it that) called Stanton Harcourt. Now this is not your average village, its a beautiful place full of gorgeous houses and bungalows but it doesn’t have any shops and the pubs that were there are no longer open as pubs. There was one pub called The Bell which has been transferred into houses and another one called The Ferrymen which has been under renovation for over 4 years.
Now don’t get me wrong I am glad I went out with the team, finally, but it was just super weird in the village and sometimes a bit eerie and from what I heard about the village no wonder it is eerie. I have looked it up and there is a place called the devil’s quoit which is basically a circle of stones next to this huge lake.
Anyway, back to how my day went. We got to Stanton Harcourt after a very funny car journey full of jokes, business talk and singing, including a song from high school musical called we are all in this together (some of you who are reading this are probably like never heard of it! you people haven’t lived!). when we arrived we had a quick group chat and off we went! I was told I was going around with my leader which I was very happy about because I wasn’t 100% confident about going on my own.
It took us a while to get to our first house and when we finally got there we started talking! We had a bit of banter with some of them and it was really fun to go and talk to people and let them know what the charity does and how amazing they are doing.
We carried on around the village until 4 and we then went on our break! Now this is where it got really weird but it was also the funniest part. So we were looking for somewhere to chill out and have some catch up time to talk about how we have done so far.
Well me and some of the others needed a wee and we could not find anywhere and it got to the point where we didn’t care where we went to the toilet. Well, lets just say we ended up weeing in a field!!! Insane huh? But we all laughed so hard that we had to wee there! So we went back to our meeting point and then got back to work! We then finished at 7 and went home!
Okay, that doesn’t sound like a really weird day but trust me you had to be there to understand! I’m sure my colleagues would agree with you.
On the way home we had a funny car journey, we were all a lot more comfortable with each other and understood each other a bit more which was great! When we got home, the office was shut so we had our meeting in the car and all started to depart!
For my first day it was amazing but so weird and the boys reassured me that not everyday is like that, its actually quite chilled out compared to the strangeness that we had on Friday. I do have to say, I am very much looking forward to next week! I have decided that my goal is to get between 8-10 sales for the week obviously if I get over that AWESOME! I am just really excited to get started properly and have a new outlook to what I am doing.
I have what I need to say in my head and I have been trying to practice it all weekend in my head did it on my Nan and Uncle and I got it so right! I feel like I just need to get out there and show everyone what I’ve got! 10 sale week here I come… leader here I come… new business I am on my way!
My aim for this year is to by the end of it is to have my own business and being able to create an amazing opportunity for a lot of other people! Time to get my arse in gear though and go to bed! I have to be in the office by 10:30am and then wont get home until late so I am going to pop off to bed and get some well needed beauty sleep! Good night you beauties ❤
Lots of love
