October marks the beginning of the new fiscal year for PODS, and today we had an early morning (as in "be at the Hayward warehouse at 0545" early) meeting with the regional manager.

After the usual updates and bad jokes, we were taken into the office one-by-one and given our evaluations and raises. I got a 4% raise, which was more than I expected, and found that customer feedback on me has been overwhelmingly positive.

I got the packet for the insurance a few days ago (which [livejournal.com profile] kshandra and I need to go over soon) and will hit my three months, and the end of probation, next Tuesday.

Good times, people, good times!

I wonder if the expert manner in which you wield that breaker bar has anything to do with this...? ;-)

Conga-Rats, Doug. Positive feedback good. Larger-than-expected raise plusgood. Insurance and end of probation doubleplusgood.

Congrats! That's absolutely fantastic!

I'm so glad you kept plugging away, even when it seemed pointless.

:-D

Hey, what did you think of the truck pics, oh Truck Goddess?

Doug, I'm totally thrilled for you! :) One of those things alone would be great but to have them all come at the same time just increases the happyhappyjoyjoy exponentially. You rock!

Congratulations! I'm not at all surprised the feedback is so good, but it's great to hear.

Sounds good.

Got a dentist all picked out? (ISTR that you were waiting for benefits to kick in for some much-needed work.)

That's going to come when we select a plan. Hopefully, the insurance is recognized by the local dental school (much cheaper to have students do the work.)

Congrats! And good idea... I'm going to need a lot of dental work some time soon.

Congratulations!

I'm sure that you'll go far with the POD people.
