I keep dreaming that I go to a swimming hole from my youth and slide down the slide into 15 foot water talking on my phone. I always wake up in a panic!

Well first and foremost your dream is a symbol of who and what you priorities are revolving around. The fact that you gave your phone to your daughter while in the bath signifies that you dont care for your current working environment and the way you snatched your phone back from you daughter shows your need for cellular affection and of course you regard your phone as equally important as family time... ๐Ÿ˜Ž

Prognosis: Keep selling phones and you will lose the ones closest to you... ๐Ÿ‘€ ๐Ÿ˜Ž

Basically I was advising you to maybe look to expand your horizons by broadening your career goals....mybe ask if there are any openings in management or even accounting if you are qualified for either position why are you not in that position right now...examine yourself and see what it is you want to be doing and why you feel you can have better...

by the way how old are you?... ๐Ÿ˜Ž

I once had a nightmare where I had customers walking into my apartment and subsequently my bedroom, demanding that I fix there phones there and then. It was scary, I woke up sweating and couldn't get back to sleep. Needless to say, shortly thereafter I took a week and went to South Padre...

sorry to here that, all of our stores commission is paid out $$$$ in the store pool and employees all get a cut of it every week. If i am on vacation i still get my cut. That is just one of the many reasons I have been working for this Indirect for so long, no quotas and the pay out is much less stressful, i get salary then a cut of profit every week, no running around at the end of the month trying to make quota, and no waiting for a commission check at the end of the month,

My horrible dream is one where I'm working at the store but the computers aren't working or the phones won't program and customers are lined up out the door and yelling at me and there's nothing I can do to change things. Surprisingly, it doesn't happen very often in real life. Our computers are fairly reliable and phone problems aren't too bad to deal with.

The other horrible dream is that I'm working and it's the end of the day, but I can't lock the door and people keep coming in and refuse to leave. Sometimes, the door will be locked, but people will still figure out how to open it because they can see me in the store. It is usually a never ending cycle until I wake myself up.
