So I’m off to work today. This is my second official full time week in 18 months… I didn’t have a baby or an injury or have a planned hiatus. My former employers were closing their offices and I decided to just retire for a while, built some websites, do some consulting and worked out what was next for me. (And I decided BTW; it’s babies… Shhh, don’t tell anyone)
And so I am back working as a property manager for a portfolio of 150 properties. Full Time! Wish me luck.
But before I go let me tell you this great story from my first week back (prior to the Christmas break);
Ms Potential Tenant: Does the owner accept pets.
Me: No, I’m sorry but I can show you something else. What sort of pets do you have.
Ms. Potential Tenant: Oh I don’t have any pets. I have an outside dog.
Me: Oh, I’m afraid even outside dogs count as pets..!
Ms Potential Tenants: Oh, okay, I guess I could get my Mum to take her, she doesn’t get along with my cats anyway…
Me: *shocked expression and frenzied searching for the candid camera style cameras* Ah sure. Look, give me a call when you see something you like. *silent scream………*
Hahaha, property management. Joy!
