After reviewing my employer's feedback I realize that I'm a well-rounded employee. I do anything I am asked I work well with others and in a professional matter. Based on what I scored lower on, I should work on having better problem solving skills and have better judgment. It surprised me to see that I scored lower on the integrity and honesty part. I put my best into all of my work, but there's always room for improvement I guess.
This week was an easy one. The most challenging thing I had to do was go through 300 pages of parcel numbers and copy the extensions onto another stack of papers. I almost finished all of 2011's foreclosure notices for Macomb county. I really enjoy my job. I was offered an opportunity to stay an intern over the summer but I don't know what I'm going to do because I have another job that is going to be demanding more hours.
This week I went back to my usual routine of scanning papers. I also got to get to know my co-workers more. My work mom, Audrey, explained that when you work in an union and there is a chance for a job promotion, the bid goes to the person with the most seniority, not the one with the most qualifications. I think that is so unfair for the people who work hard to earn their qualifications. They worked hard for that position and they should get it. I also baked cookies for the office and gave my boss the note. She seemed really happy.
This week I learned to not rush. I had a file of apartments that needed to be rescaned because I didn't attatch the deed to them all. It took me an hour and a half to fix the mistake. Then I went threw these boxes and got rid of all of the paid affidavits. It took a majority of my time this week.
This week I have been looking through the recent parcel lists that show who still owe taxes for 2016. My job was to mark the parcels that have already paid or have asked for extensions. then I had to count how many parcels still owed money. I then sent the paperwork to my co-worker, Kathy, and she contacted the people who owed and tried to help them out before they were foreclosed. I just started a new task of going through the affidavits for last year and tossing the ones who have already been paid off. I really enjoy it there and I absolutely love my co-workers, especially my work mom, Audrey.
