Then we can pretend it's natural....

So it's Saturday night and I'm at home, alone. Lame? Perhaps, - but, I feel quite happy about it. Sometimes I just need some alone time. Sean and Dustin are at a party, and I'm just not in the right mind frame for that.

It was a long, but good week at work. Things are going fairly well at the bank. I feel like I am finally understanding what being a teller is all about. I know what I need to work on, and what I'm good at. There is still room for a lot of improvement, but it's nice to know I no longer need to run for help every two seconds. This coming week they are going to start to train me for a slightly different position. I'm going to start training to work in THE CAGE. That's right, the cage. Also known as the commercial teller. We're a large branch, so the commercial tellers work inside a secured area which is referred to as the cage. In a way it will be easy - but in a way it will be hard as well. I think I'm going to miss the customer service aspect of being able to chat face to face with customers without having to talk through a microphone - but I figure it will be a good learning experience. I'm also a firm believer in learning everything that is offered within a job.

It would be possible to make my comments regarding the current teacher's strike here... and I'm thinking of it - but it's a depressing kind of story where a whole bunch of really good people are getting screwed. So I think I'll leave that for a different day.
