I would basically be cross trained to do everything in the office. There are a total of 8 people in the office. Doing things from post closings, title examiner, title processing, phones, bank deposits, mail runs...and on and on...

Good morning / evening everyone!

Hey Tristan- working in an all lady establishment?? Dude, too good to pass up!!!

Lisa, what kinda ice cream do you want? I'll be going to Al Asad (the biggest base in the region) next week, so I'll do my best to round up what you want, some dry ice (they gotta have it somewhere in Iraq) and find a Fed-Ex shipper. If those cheepies won't help ya I will!!!

Not yet but I have been impressing the lady in charge of hiring people by coming in early for the interview, and by getting back to her with numbers of some personal references ASAP. My shop teacher, which I had as a personal reference, thinks I have a good chance at getting the job.

Jake I don't know if you saw this when I said it before so I'll say it again.

If you're ever working register don't put cash in the drawer until after the person accepts their change.

I had a lady give me a 20 and when I gave her change for a 20 she got mad and said she gave me a 50. I couldn't prove right away she didn't since dumb me put the $ in the drawer already like my boss told me not to. Fortunately I had no 50s in the drawer so I was able to prove it, but just remember.

Leave the $ on the side of the register until after they take their change.

Living with a boy is fine. Hasn't been a real huge adjustment. Probably the best roommate I've ever had so far. He doesn't borrow my clothes. (at least I hope not)

Hey Danny. Sweet. Ice cream all the way from Al Asad!! lol. I thought you guys ate that freeze dried stuff. I had some of that ice cream one time, it was kinda neat. But no seriously..I haven't forgotten about the music. I've been having some issues with my computer/itunes. I owe Jay some music too.
