OK. No knitting done this weekend. Why? How? What?!?...I know. I was working on school this weekend. I had 3 movies to watch. 2 to analyze and the 3rd to also analyze, but not so in depth as it pertained to a team assignment. So far I have 2 down and 1 to go. The last one being one of the individual assignments. I looked in our team folder (my classes are all online), and noticed that one of the other girls on the team had posted that she did the wrong portion of the team assignment and wondered if I could complete mine and hers (in the beginning when I thought we would not have enough people to divvy up the assignment, I had offered to complete 2 portions). Well, now the other team members want all portions done by tomorrow. Uh...I don't think that they'll get the portion she was supposed to do by then. I have my individual assignments to complete. Now, I'll probably end up helping her, but it will probably be tomorrow at the earliest. I can't just let the team assignment fall apart due to someone else's error. Plus this is my last class and I only have a week left. Then I'll have a big ol' bachelor's degree!!! Does it really mean that much? The only way we can tell is to get it, let people know, and see if better jobs or higher pay come my way.
Next week I start official training for my new position. This past week was kind of a joke. We basically looked at some of the programs we would be using. Being as I worked at the company before and am just switching departments, I am familiar with most of the software we will be working with. We did go to visit sales, which was fun, but we were unsure of our purpose there. We think it was to just see how their processes work. It will be nice to be back on an 8-5 job with decent pay.
There is so much that I want to do, but I don't know how to go about doing it. Like I want to start promoting my own talents and maybe turn them into a business. I do digital scrapbooking, photo restoration and colorization, and photo CD/DVD creation. The problem I have is getting an audience. Who needs this type of work done? Who knows what this type of work is? How do I market the idea? I don't want to spend a ton on getting the word out and generate no work. Any ideas?
