Finished my first week at TransAmerica.. It was awesome. They started a new program called Foundations. This program gives you a week learning about the company, some team building activities and then a brief intro into the products the company sells. It was so much fun. I enjoyed that the class was small. 9 of us. Still not used to having to get up at 600 AM though. lol. Next week begins the 6 weeks of training and actually getting to work on the phones. I didn't realize that Life Insurance could be so interesting. I am already planning on getting some schooling in. I would like to get my life insurance license so maybe I could sell. But at least I can have the license. The company does a 100% reimbursement for tuition so that helps.
Funny story. This past Thursday there was a huge rainstorm. Weather was terrible. We are just getting ready to start a new topic of discussion when the PA system comes on telling us that there is a Tornado Warning in our area and everyone needed to head to the shelters. Most of my class went to the shelter in the copy room. A few went to the stairwells (rumor has it they wont do that again as it was sooooooo hot in there). In the Copy room we were having a ball. Just talking away. Telling funny stories. Taking selfies
We were all having a grand time until (accidentally) the only guy in our class, hit the light switch and the lights went out. All 30-35 of the people in the room went silent. You could have heard a pin drop. Thankfully after about 45 minutes the all clear was sounded and we were able to leave.
The BEST thing about this week is:
Our sweet Chubby Cheeks is here!!! He was born March 5th at 735pm. He weighed a whopping 10 pounds 5 ounces and was 21 1/2 inches long.
Little Man is just as happy as can be with his new baby brother.
May you all have a wonderful blessing filled week!
