Speaking of Baby Steps

Many of my friends do not know that on November 5th I was laid off from my job at Sunwest Management. It was a very difficult situation for me as the position was one that I had desired for many years. As the Resident Relations Coordinator I was able to speak with the residents and family members and assist them with resolving their issues and concerns. During the year that I held the position I was able to close 750 calls from 2008 and keep the 2009 open calls to a minimum. The loss of this position and the loss of the friends I had made at Sunwest hit hard. With unemployment reaching 14% here in Oregon I felt I had a long haul to find another job. With the help and support of the Universe and my friends I am happy to say that tomorrow I start a new position that is going to be a great challenge. I will be able to use my accounting background and my new insurance coding skills. I should have my certification in insurance coding sometime in January 2010, which will complete just over a year of study. Baby Steps, definately; on a road of great expectations and challenges!
