Subject: [Nfb-krafters-korner] OT what has been happening with me

Hi all,

 

I just wanted to update everyone with what has been happening with me this summer. In June and July I took a computer class to learn windows7 and office 2010. In August I took a two-week intensive course in call center and customer service training. Admittedly it is rather late in life for me to begin a new career, but I wanted a part-time job so I could afford to purchase more craft supplies and other fun stuff! So I have successfully completed all this training and it is wonderful because I feel so empowered now, knowing that I have the skills to compete in the job market in the customer service field. Of course I really wanted to thank my instructors and since I didn't feel that thank you was quite enough, I gave each of them a piece of jewelry I'd made. I gave my computer teacher one of the loom knit wire and bead necklaces because I knew it was something unique and she was so surprised and pleased. I gave my customer service instructor a memory wire bracelet I'd made and I was certain she'd like that since I heard her bangle bracelets jingling during class. I was right, she loved it. 

 

Never thought when I signed up for Krafter's Korner how much I would be able to learn and share, and never knew that crafting might give me the courage to attempt new challenges not craft-related.

 

So thank you all in KK.

 

Cathy
