On Monday I am ready to get things going for the week, but its sad to say most offices are not feeling the same way
Since I work 2 full time jobs this could get a little confusing, but I keep good records, so I am on top of this.
I made all the calls at 1 pm and of coarse I get voice mail, I am used to this so..., I leave a detailed message with phone number.
First the caregiver job :
Doc # 1 - Me talking to the machine:
Yes I am aware that he missed his appointment this morning and the reason was because of the last minute cancellation of the CT scan, needed for the doctor. Please call me back with the new CT appointment and doctor appointment.
Doc #2 - Me talking to the machine:
I am calling to let you know that " ___" is having sever side effect from his medication ( I name off all of them), is there something else he can get to replace this inhaler, since he cannot function at all he will not be taking it anymore.
The Landlady :
Call # 1 - The insurance company - Me talking to the machine:
This is the second or third time I have called and I do not get you, just the voicemail , I need an address so that I can send you the estimate and the photos of the damage. The estimate is ____ and the company is ____. As I mentioned to you the first time we talked you can contract me at this number "AFTER" 12 o`clock each day.
Call #2 - The electrician - HEY he answered!
I talk for about 5 minutes explaining the problem and asked about hooking this part of the wiring into this other new part that was put in when he was to busy and I hired someone else, he said YES and gave me the appointment, and its closer than I expected and I am glad of that.
Call # to the tenant
No answer and no voicemail set up
Sat down to mylot - Phone rings and the lady argues with Tony about his appointment. I asked for the phone and he said " here talk to her, already getting mad," I explained the call I got and they were already closed, I asked for an appointment for the scan and to see the doctor the same day, I was put on hold. She must have talked to the doctor and he told her yes the purpose of the doctor visit was to see the scan and go from there. They will call me back.
Its just after 3 pm and I expect to be slammed with calls right at 4:55 pm.
That is my Monday.

@Ithink Well 2 of 3 called back, I got the tenant and left a voice message for the other one to set days for work at those houses so I did good.
Sometimes none call back and my day was wasted, not I make sure I do the called after 12.

Well, at least so far all is good with the electrician! I am just enjoying a quiet day. It has been raining all day but still went out to get some air and walk a bit and bought something for supper. Happy Monday!

@andriaperry I went to a shopping plaza and all the stores are open and full of people. I guess, everyone celebrates in their own way. I really don't understand the idea of celebrating the giving of thanks. If you do something for me and I will say thanks. What is the point of celebrating?
I thank God every day for his blessings. How is eating a turkey or watching a sports game of interest to God?

@1hopefulman I do see your point. I think that is has to do with the family coming together for a meal and giving thanks as a family.

Our smoke detector went off this morning after we turned on the heater. The highlight of our day.

One of my least favorite tasks is making phone calls. It's such a pain when you can't get through to an actual person, and more than half the time they never bother calling back.

@andriaperry I don't mind voicemail so much if those concerned actually ring back but it sometimes means a lot of waiting around.

Seems the way of the world now, And to be honest I am joining it by letting voicemail take the calls.
