Winds of Change

The winds of change are blowing at the Wade home. A major event has occurred. I have finally moved on from Discover Card. It is official. Discover was such a great company to work for, but lets face it...I was miserable the last year! Eight years was as long as I could stand it. Call it my bad attitude or the bad economy, either way, it was bad! It was time for a change. Today I started my new position with Jet Blue Airlines. I wasn't supposed to start until the end of Feb, but some needs came up and a group of us started early. I will be doing airline reservations from home. (Once I finish my 4 weeks training). I am excited for the flight benefits, health benefits, and of course working from home! Plus...one of Jet Blue's core values is FUN! I figured you can't go wrong working for a company who has FUN in it's mission statement. Even if it is half the pay as my last job. They say money doesn't make you happy anyway, right? I will be working graveyard shifts, so keep me in your prayers. This ought to be good. I am NOT a night person (working the last 8 years at Discover early mornings), so my goal is to not fall asleep and get fired my first week. Another goal: to not gain 20 lbs the first month, eating candy all night long. Wish me luck! All I know is that Change is Good!
