Nothing like Pressure

So yesterday we had a Senior VP in from home office, and he was holding meetings with everyone on the team. So when my turn came around I found out that not only am I in for Hydraulics school, I'm being fast-tracked for the next level of hydraulics. So now I have a senior VP in the company with his eyes on me. Not that, that is a bad thing, but it does add pressure to this, and, while I know that I can do this, it just takes my focus away from doing it. Anyways, this should be an awesome time, and I'm looking forward to it.

Hopes aren't worthless

So yesterday at work I was given a piece of paper that I've been after for most of the 4 years I've been there. Someone finally decided that I was worthy of applying to get into the Princess Auto Hydraulics course. So now I'm a little nervous, I don't want to screw this up, as I probably won't get another shot at this if I don' get in. So I'm going to take a couple of days and try to put together a good application.

Tough times at Work

First off, I love my job. I enjoy it a ton. No two days are the same, I like the oppertunities for learning and advancement, not to mention the ability to get around and see the country. However, this last week, while I was at a different store, man, did I ever have to work hard. I've helped with renovating stores, and other grand openings, but this one took the cake. I can honestly say, I've not been so tired, and worn out after any other single week at work as I was after this one. I just hope that this week I can take life a little easier.
