Yay, my hospital issued 50% off T pass worked today. I was worried that it would not automatically load. Today the boss was in the office before me. I was there at 5:40 AM. She asked if I would be too worried to work with her. I told her that she is past the isolation stage, not actively coughing and sounds fine. I am fully vaxed and have no issues. Besides it's time for Month End reporting and we need to Rock and Roll. If she had been hacking and sneezing I would have an issue. Frankly my Dad wondering around Casinos will probably bring hime the plague to me first. She told me that she was worried about the office manager trainee buying a house in Rhode Island. That she wouldn't hack the commute and would leave. Then she would have to train me and a new office manager. I said it was possible, but she may stick it out. Nothing makes someone stay at a job and put up with a commute as much as a new mortgage payment. I know she put everything into that down payment (she told me they gutted one of their 401ks). Besides she will never make what she makes in Boston in the suburbs of Rhode Island as a bank teller. She doesn't have enough experience to be an office manager...yet. It's wise to keep it in mind, but focus on getting me up to speed and then I can take things from your plate so you can work on developing the others as needs arise. She then says that she was toying with the idea of hiring a temp to spend more time with me and train me. (WTF) I honestly asked who would train the temp to train me. She said she would. She thinks that someone skilled in Credit Union Book Keeping could spend the extra time with me. Well then my not so shy personality came out and I said with all due respect I am confused and am left wondering why you would need me? Why not just keep the temp? She said that because she liked me and liked how I worked and how I am a team player who is in it for the long hall. Um okay. But can you find a pre existing Credit Union Bookkeeper who wants a short term gig? I have been looking for classes and any info on line without luck. Classes are for bookkeepers. I know bookkeepers. You become a credit union bookkeeper by experience. There are agencies out there that will take on outsourced credit union bookkeeping, but that would cost more than what I am getting. I told her that I thought the best strategy was to let me do all the reports. I have a list and I put it into a timeline order. In the mornings I will tell you what reports I am tackling. I will save a version of my timeline on a shared drive and check off items as I do them. You can check my progress as I complete. I can then ask you questions as they come up in real time. She said that she only was going to be in the office one day (sigh). Well I know that I can't cuff you to a chair, but we can work by phone. Maybe set up a training session and use the tech to get us through...you know, share screens (I have been saying this for 4 months). I need to work in real time with real deadlines and responses to my questions. Today I did 13 out of 14 reports that can be done before we get the statements from our investments. We don't get the final statement until the 8th of the month. Then we do closing account entries for the month. Then there are 10 more reports to do. There are 4 I find complex. We can go over at least 2 of them when she is in the office next. I know I can do this if she would just sit down and teach. I know I am worth my old pay and can get that raise once she is no longer doing any of my reports.
