Re: Best/Worst about your Job

Best: great boss, travel discounts, travel deals and upgrades, wonderful coworkers, helping irate people turn into kind people.

Worst: irate callers who curse and yell at you, getting a project at 7pm and told it is due by noon the next day, having to track people down when their reservation is about to be cancelled, the politics, and seeing people get fired or quit. (my boss had to fire a fantastic booking agent today for job abandonment. And another wonderful hard working booking agent is home sick and quit to go back to her home state of Kansas)

Teaching:

Best- molding young minds
when you feel like you made a difference
Summer vacations and other days off


Worst- not being able to go to the bathroom
whenever you want
holidays we do have off are most $$
