New Position at Work

I have a new position at Ancestry.com. I have been doing it for the last 3 weeks and I love it. I am now the Call Center's Scheduling Coordinator. I am in charge of all the Call Center agent's schedules.

Because of the last girl that was in the position, the Call Center Director has put me on a 90 day probation and won't officially announce that I got the job. But people aren't stupid most of them have figured it out. Especially since they just hired for my old position!! (Congrats BreAnn!!)

It has been really frustrating because of the way he approached me, it made me feel like I am the horrible employee. This is giving them a chance to get rid of me. My manager keeps telling me it isn't because of me but because of everything this last girl did. I figure I'll just have to do my best. If I get fired after 90 days it will give me the push I need to find a new career path.

I have been talking about moving on for several years but haven't found anything to match Ancestry.com benefits. Although I'm sure I could get paid more somewhere else, but my current insurance and stuff are awesome... So I stay.

I really love the scheduling position and feel it was a really good change for me. It gives me a chance to be out talking to people again, not just hiding in the corner. It funny how many people thought I didn't work at Ancestry anymore because they never saw me.

I've been there 5 years and counting.... They may never get rid of me.
