It seems that I haven’t had much luck recently, and the last couple of companies that I have worked for have closed their doors.  I suppose I could blame it on the recession, but in many cases there have been some blunders with management which have resulted in those closures.  Whatever the case, I have found myself out job hunting a little too often for my tastes.

But I am hoping after my successful interview and job offer yesterday that things will be different.  I applied at a document imaging company that was just opening its’ doors here in town.  Truth be told, I have been in the business services field for almost twenty years, so I figured that working with one of the leading document management software vendors would be a good fit for my skill set.

Thankfully they saw it too.

So, I will be starting my new job tomorrow and I am very excited.  It is always fun "learning the ropes” at a new employer, and I am looking forward to seeing exactly what I will be doing.  I am hoping that I will be interacting with the customers (since I am a people person) and doing sales, but I won’t complain about wherever they put me – I am just happy to have a job.

After the accessibility store that I had been working for years had closed, I found myself out looking for work for the first time in ten years.  Though I was a little rusty at making a resume, I had a good friend of mine help me out and then I was ready to hit the pavement and find a new job.

It didn’t take me long to find a job, thanks to my experience selling liftchairs.  I was hired just two days after my interview by another accessibility provider in town, though my role was going to be different: I was going to install stair lifts.

I was a little worried about being hired for this position since I am not the handiest person on the planet, but I knew that I would be able to learn.  It couldn’t be too hard, right?

Well, after the first two weeks of training, I am starting to get it.  Sure, I might not be the fastest installer, but I am thorough, and we haven’t had one yet that hasn’t worked the first try.  Hopefully I will be able to get my speed up so that I can do more installs during the day and I become an asset to the organization.
