Back to Work

Today was my first day back after a week off. I thought there was going to be a ton of work for me to do, but I think everyone chipped in while I was gone and helped out with the work load. I did have to do about 10 contracts which is a lot compared to what I normally have. I usually get about three or four a day. I hope the rest of the week goes this smoothly.

I have been getting a little bit frustrated doing the contracts because clients will change the date for their class several times. Each time they change it I have to generate the new contract. It doesn't take that much time, but it would be easier if they made sure the date was doable before calling us. However, this is one of the ways that Red Cross generates money and that enables us to be able to help so many people. I think some people assume that the classes would be free because so many of the services at Red Cross are. But we have to make money some way to support all the services we offer.
