New Jobs

Career Step


Matt and I both have new jobs! Matt has actually been working for Career Step in Springville, Utah (South of Provo) for over a month now and he really loves it! Career step is a medical transcription training center and Matt deals with all the big companies and tries to make sure that the companies hire their students. I am so glad that he has a job that he actually likes and it isn't dangerous. Oh the best part is that he does not have to do work at home!







My last day at RC Willey was on Friday. I had mixed feelings about the whole thing, but I think that it is a good thing to be moving on. It was really hard to say goodbye to co-workers but I am only a block away from them so it will be ok we can still do lunch and I am sure that Michelle and I can still play speed every once in a while! I now work at a company called QSI. They build HMI and GPS systems for huge industries. They build touch screens for pretty much everything. I went and trained there for two days and it is pretty cool. They have a really laid back culture, it is casual dress and you can bring your dog to work (I have mixed feelings about this one, but it is kind of fun), they also have a on-site personal trainer! I am super excited about that- I need to get back into shape. I will be working in their marketing department which is a change, but I think it is a good change- maybe people will like me now that I am out of HR! We will see.



Halloween

Michelle and I were the only cool people in our department to dress up for Halloween! We have come to the conclusion that everyone (even children) hate HR people! RC Willey lets little kids come and trick-or-treat there during the day and in all the other departments they had a ton of kids come through, they even ran out of candy. Well, 15 kids came to the HR Department! Michelle and I were so sad and we even tried to play cool Halloween music to lure them in, it didn't work! Oh well, we still had fun dressing up!

Matt and I were so excited for trick-or-treaters to come to our house for the first time, and that was another disappointment! We had three knocks on our door and one of them were teenagers that didn't even dress up- but we were just excited that they knocked on our door that we still gave them candy! hehe. We did have our neighbor come over and he has the cutest little boy and a bunch of girls. The girls were dressed as princesses and he was an army man and he made sure that we knew that he was not a princess! It was so cute, that was the highlight of our night!
