the great revelation
So, here's the big secret:

I got a new job!

Ya-TTA! I officially start next week as PETCO's Store Communications Coordinator, which means that any sort of communication that needs to go to any of the stores goes through me. I'm an I-dotter and a T-crosser. More importantly it means that I don't have to answer that infamous question, "Where's my bag of free dog food?" from Captain Crabbypants Customers.
I have been splitting my days between CustService in the morning and training for the new position in the afternoon. And I pray that today will not be a repeat of yesterday, where I worked from 7 am until 6 pm. Overtime or not, there comes a point where I just stop learning. I have been introduced around to a gazillion people I will never remember the names of, and have had some unique insight on how people perceive me:
"Hi, I'd like you to meet Britt. She's..."
* fiesty.
* cuter than we thought she'd be.
* the bitchiest one in CustSat, so that's why she's here now.
* a firecracker.
* like Gwen Stefani.

Hmm... Nothing about my skills, per se, but still a lot to live up to. But it should be a good start to a good year. And on that note:
