Awkward Phone Call

Well everyone I got the most awkward phone call ever today at Vinyl Industries. This is how it went:

Me: Vinyl Industries, how may I direct your call?
Confused Woman: Um, Yeah, I just needed to talk to someone about a pump that I bought from you guys that isn't working.
Me: (completely confused) Uh....a pump? This is a fencing store.
Confused Woman: Oh wait, you don't sell breast pumps?
Me: (trying not to laugh out loud) No, sorry.
Confused Woman: Oh, OK. Sorry.
Me: No problem, good luck.
I hung out and busted out laughing. :)

Uh, yeah. It was a darn good thing one of the male salesmen didn't answer the phone. :)
In other news, our sister-in-law Melissa just found out she is going to be having a BOY! So exciting!

Vinyl Industries...My Home Away From Home

Well I am back. I have taken a month long vacation from life because I have been working, full time, at this place: Vinyl Industries. I am a receptionist there but I pretty much do a little bit of everything. Accounting, sales, secretarial stuff etc. Each morning I get to wake up at 5:30 am to take Jake to work (he also works here but has to start at 7:00am) and then I start work either at 8:00am or 9:00am. And I stay there until 5:00 or 6:00pm. I cannot even express to you my hatred of people who take all of their problems, sorrows and concerns out on the receptionist who holds absolutely no control. Just the other day I got yelled at (including all sorts of profanity) because one of our trucks ran over his front lawn. (Yes, he has a valid point and a valid concern but why take it out on ME?) However, the next day the man called back and apologized to me. He has been the only one to do so. My job consists of answering the phone calls of these insane people, giving people price quotes (right now the 6' privacy white fence is running at $12.95 per foot for materials. Installation is only $6.50 per foot if you are purchasing over 100' of material...blah, blah, blah), and running around for everyone else in the store. So now that you all know what I have been doing for the past month, if you are ever in the market for a vinyl fence just give us a call at Vinyl Industries and we can help you out! "Vinyl Industries, how can I direct your call?"

Happy Birthday Jake!

Happy Birthday to the greatest husband ever! Yesterday was his actual birthday, June 5, and it was actually my parent's 25th year anniversary as well! The morning was spent working...bummer. But the afternoon was fun! We went to lunch at Los Hermanos with my family and then went shopping. Jake bought some t-shirts, a tie, and another white church shirt. He got money from his parents, a costco card from my parents, a HUGE bag of Swedish fish from Margaret, and an AMAZING cake from Caroline. It was a fun day and I am so glad that Jake had a fun day! :)

I love you, Sweetie!!!
