So, I’m a Medicare sales rep. I’ve been working with this horrible company since August and this year I decided to leave them and try getting a job in tech, my dream field. I succeeded, and now I’m a Customer Success Advisor for a start up SaaS company.
Both positions are remote. In my original role, I’ve been idle for months. Work has dried up, they kept switching my department, and now I’m doing nothing. Literally nothing. For at least a month now, I clock in everyday, nobody speaks to me, I speak to nobody and they just pay me. This isn’t the first instance of bizarre or disorganized behavior but I’m just blown away. I’m not even going to quit..why bother?
So now it’s the first day in my new role, did some HR onboarding in the morning and I’ve been idle for at least 3 hours now. Nobody has addressed me and I’m keeping quiet. Just craaaazzyyyy.
With these two gigs, I’m finally making a living wage. This is America!!
This idle time has helped me continue to chase my dreams; I’m in a Salesforce bootcamp, I just started a self paced Business Analytics nanodegree, and soon I’ll be participating in a coding basics bootcamp where I get to make my own website.
Did I just hit the work/life lottery?! I gotta be dreaming.. somebody pinch me…
