So yesterday at work, Sam (our boss) gave Kramer and I the news that we would be transfered to the door-to-door canvassing office because of our lack of money raising skills. Like I said before the quota per day is $125 and Monday and Tuesday I only raised $95 each day.
So the kids from the door office are really cool and we thought that it wouldn't be too bad... but this morning I got a phone call from Sam telling me that she was "letting us go" completely.
So of course I got upset, freaked out for a minute and panicked.
BUT... maybe this is all just part of our adventure.
We were fired not because of our personal deficiencies, but our lack of ability to raise obscene amounts of money from people on the street.
Oh well I guess, as much as I care about the issues and the environment- that doesn't make me a great street peddler.
Minneapolis phase two: Job search.
well, now, that was unexpected. i'm soooooo not a fan of fear induced work ethics. lord knows, you had enthusiasm to spare. it was totally unnecessary for them to do that. honestly.
