It's been two weeks now that I have been working at my new and am really liking it. Basically I'm the Assistant Manager/Activities director/marketing/volunteer coordinator. LOL! It's all good. I like that it's not all business and computers. I get to set up for bowling, do exercises, call out bingo, play games, plan movie nights. It's fun. I also get to take people on tours and show then our place, and since we are not full yet, convince them that this is the best place to retire.
I think people out here are still trying to get used to the ideal of what a retirement community is. Most people think it's just a fancy nursing home, so that's one obstacle we need to overcome. We're not a nursing home, it's independent living with everything provided for you. Plain and simple.
The staff I work with is really friendly and cool to work with. I will try to find time to post more often, but that's going to be harder now that I work full time. As is right now, both kids were interested in watching a cartoon, so I took the opportunity to jump on the computer and now they are both next to me and Xavier's trying to tug me away. LOL!
