 Hello everybody and welcome back. This is part two of my life update and I hope you guys are enjoying so far. It has been quite a roller coaster over this last year and I've been so nervous to talk about all the stuff going on. I didn't want people to hate me or dislike my channel anymore just because of this change in my life. I really, when I started this channel I had a real and deep passion for teaching and not that I don't still love kids and still want to change their lives but I don't know right now it's just I'm taking a different path in life, the path less traveled maybe or I don't know and I'm exploring something different so I'm going to start off where I ended on the last one talking about the end of the valley fair. So towards the end of September I got a message I guess from this contracting company and so the cool thing about this, let me back up a little bit, so I have gone through another contracting company and like before I got the job at valley fair to kind of put myself in a position where maybe if I couldn't get a job at valley fair I'd at least have maybe some other options going forward. So I didn't really trust that one I thought it was kind of slimy that they kind of manipulated you into applying and then showing up for that interview for the job and then they don't really ever talk about the job so I didn't love that and whatever so I get this message from this other company and I'm like cool let's see what's gonna happen. Well the company ended up being the same one that part of their company does the substitute teaching that I went through so I was like oh cool I'm already kind of familiar with this company I've worked with them before so they should be a good option to work with. So yeah anyways I kept kind of contacting them and getting information and I went ahead and kept working forward through the process with them. So the position that they had said to me was a position in HR and I was like sweet it was for $18 an hour which was more than I was making as a sub and I was like that is awesome I'm gonna try it because that seems like a good amount and you're telling me that I can possibly get a job in HR without I guess any experience or a degree in that area so I was like let's try it see what happens and I really liked that throughout the process they were just focused on getting me this one job that I was interested in and applied for they reached out to me with the position and throughout the whole journey that's what it was about and I truly truly appreciated that and it didn't feel slimy or weird or whatever it was truly about getting me this position and I really loved that. So anyways fast forward one of the days I go to the interview and it was kind of funny because I had told people hey I have an interview at US Bank and I was like this is exciting and they're like congratulations and I was like yeah thanks but I didn't have to do anything to get it I just kind of said I was interested so that was kind of a weird situation but anyways so I get there and I was really nervous but I had kind of been practicing and I was all dressed up and everything like that and I go through the interview I felt like me and the lady were really really vibing she seemed to be very excited about all my answers and just I don't know there were so many things and so many indicators that I was like okay finally I got to an interview that I felt really really good about for the first time in a long time and so yeah I get through the interview they asked me a bunch of great questions like what's your dream job and I was like if you would have asked me a few years ago I would have been able to tell you and now I don't know it's it's changed and I'm not sure what that dream job looks like anymore so whatever so I went through the interview and I left and I called the recruiter lady or the contract company lady who was working with me and I told her that I got done with the interview and blah blah so we get off the phone and she calls me back about five minutes later and is like you got the job and I was so excited but I was like you know I better call Weston to see talk it out see if this is a good option I like to talk things out with him and just get another perspective on the situation so I talked to him and he's like oh my gosh that's awesome you should accept it this is great so I go ahead and I accepted it and oh my gosh it was a really great decision now I will tell you I did not know at the beginning that it was a call center I kind of found that out during the interview which I was like oh god do I want to work at a call center but it was still an HR and for a really big and great company and so I was like you know what I'm gonna try it and so I have now been working there for two and a half months almost two and a half months and honestly it's been really good they spent a really long time training me and they have honestly been encouraging me every step of the way people really work together there and they are so supportive and like positive you know every job there's a reason to complain and yeah they complain sometimes but like for the most part people are very very positive and it's it's about climbing the ladder there and working your way up and I don't know people just they want the best for you there and they are willing to help you and support you and I really really appreciated that and it's nice to be a part of something that like you can continue to grow I feel like in teaching like you can grow but it's it's I don't know like it's more vertical it's not so much like I'm going up in the ranks like you're always going to be at that teacher level you know you obviously can get tenured and get a master's degree or whatever but like you're kind of always here and it's cool to be a part of something that I can eventually be here so yeah I I'm just kind of going through that I just really started the job about two weeks ago so everything up to that has been training which is really cool and yeah I just had a one-on-one recently with my boss and she told me that positions are in hold right now so when my contract is up they are going to extend it but they're hoping that as soon as possible I can apply and hopefully get a full-time position so that is where I'm at right now my contract is being extended which kind of sucks because with my wedding coming up I need some days of vacation but we'll have to see how that all goes and it's been going well I've learned so much and I'm just excited about it's a different change and you know I mean we'll have to see what happens I don't know like things may change they may go back to teaching I may stay here for a really long time forever I don't know but this is where I'm at right now so I just wanted to share that with you guys I know this video is very long and I'm so sorry and thank you if you made it to the end but I'm gonna go ahead and go and that was my story of me working in HR for a great company like US Bank even though I am a contract worker right now hopefully in a few months I will be a full-time worker in that position and start working my way into other areas of the company and find something that I truly love so alright thank you so much for watching and I'll catch you guys next time
