Phase One of my training is complete !

Wow I worked 8 days straight and now I am on a three day break. I have completed the CSR training at TETCO and next week will be moving on to Assistant Manager Training. I feel energized. I really feel like I am hitting my stride with this great company. I hope I will be able to keep up the pace and continue to give it my all. You know working in a convenience store is funny you see people how they are when they aren't pretending. Most people who come in have no idea I once owned my own company with offices in Dallas...Houston and San Antonio or I made over 100,000.00 a year. They don't know I was a Police Officer for 7 Years or I am a licensed Realtor. They think I am a regular Joe and feel totally at ease dealing with me. I like it that way also. I just have to treat people they way I want to be treated and follow the golden rule like in Real Estate.I feel good when someone is able to get a better deal when I advise them of a current special we have. They appreciate it and tell me so. Seems funny but when someone says wow you sure have some clean restrooms or this store is the cleanest store I have everbeen in it makes me beam with pride. I hope you won't be afraid to try different things in life. Don't let pride get in the way of your success. Try different things in Real Estate if the current thing is not working. Get a part time job if you have to don't believe the hype there are many successful part time agents. ( I do believe Full-time agents provide better service for Sellers ) but it is possible and you need to do whats right for you. One thing I have learned is nothing is easy and nobody is going to give it to you. You have to work and work hard (total commitment) if you want to achieve success.
