The Lair

you guys are talking of christmas break?

I am just on my normal schedule. Visa doesnt close. Ill be working Christmas Day and New Years eve, on my regular schedule.

Soon my vacation hours will be at the max, and ill be forced to take a day off. So I am looking forward to that in February

 

they force you to take a day off?

 

when I hit the max of 248 hours of paid time off, then its use it or lose it. I take that as a forced day off.

 

oh yeah we lose ours too. but i get commission so i never end up using all of my time...sigh....

 

6 weeks straight ????

Now that is vacation time

 

think about this too...


Work
This week: Wed Thurs (off the rest)
Next week: Monday Tuesday Friday Saturday Sunday (off the rest)


so that translates to 12 weeks lol




in a 2 week period, I only work 7 days. A normal 9-5 job would work 10.

 

Dam. I missed the #roadto1k ending....

 

I haven’t physically gone to work since March.

I work from home.

Barely

 

What about your drive to Manhattan?

 

I am on that Barely Locomotive

 

i work from home but i have to see customers in a territory. so i'm on the road 3 or 4 days a week typically

 

Once or twice a month meetings. So that they see I’m alive.

 

Which nowadays is dangerous at home.

 

That Sales life.

 

How many of you guys/ladies in the Lair are in Sales?

 

After 13 years of retail and missing countless holidays and family get-togethers, I changed jobs this year. Its been so nice working a regular schedule and getting weekends off. After next week, I'll have 2 weeks off during christmas/new years.

 

i'm a performance manager but part of my responsibility is upsells and new business

 

Performance? As in business logistics?

 

i'm in automotive digital media so my responsibilities are optimization of the advertising they're doing with us, best practices etc. but my background is in automotive so if they need me for inventory strategy, acquisition, processes etc i'm there for them. i tell my customers my job is to help them sell more cars period
