New Beginnings- My Career

Today I have finished my training and am Offically an RSR for Schwan's.

Back in Utah I applied for a Route Sales Position for Schwan's home services, but unfortunately, I never heard back after the 2nd interview. 

So when we moved out here and I saw they were hiring in this location, I gave it a shot and ended up getting the job!

I always liked the idea of being an RSR because I know the company and enjoy the customer service as well as being out and about instead of cooped up inside all day.

The summer weather is so enjoyable but I know the winter will be a struggle. However, I really love this job.

When I started I was sent to Fargo for training. The company would rent me a car, and a hotel room, and send me out Sunday night, work Monday-Thursday, and then come home again Fridays.

I never used to travel alone, or really do anything alone. And now here I am traveling across the state, being independant and such. Haha.

This job has pushed me way out of my comfort zone, and into situations, I would usually avoid. But I have grown so much in such a short amount of time working here. I never thought I could do the things a job like this required- like driving large trucks, doing meetings, and traveling. Yet somehow I am doing them, and it's not as hard as I always told myself it was.

I always said I wanted my own career that I could support myself and not rely on my husband's income. Now I make almost as much as him, have my own insurance and retirement, and literally have the career I have always wanted.

I have never felt more like an independent feminist woman that putting on my work boots every day.

And I am so proud of myself for everything I have accomplished so far. 

Cheers to new beginnings and personal growth!
