67 Months, 5 Years 7 Months, Millions of phone calls, thousands of guests, couple of dozen of Weddings, 4 Front Offices Managers, 2 General Managers, and for the most part it’s all coming to an end. I have worked side by side 40+ hours a week with some amazing people. Back in 2007 when Lekisha brought me on I had no idea I would stay with the company as long as I did or do as many things as I do. I’m sure only being 19 at the time I was kind of a handful. I tried to learn fast for her and get all the information that I needed to know quickly. Then she stuck me with Libby. Libby and I are two peas in a pod, we feed off each other. I will tell you this much we never had a bad shift together. Then I moved to days and Libby stayed on nights. Between Libby, Lekisha, and myself we rocked everything out, no one could stop us. Lekisha then got promoted and left us.
Then that brought me to Erika, she is an amazing women. I have never told her this but she is someone I greatly respect, and look up to very much. She got the front desk in shape and she ALWAYS had our back. She would never let anyone take advantage of us. She was awesome to say the least. Libby and I still rocked it out with Erika but at that same time when Erika came so did our new GM Jen. Jen has been with us ever since. I don’t think she is going any were soon! Erika then left us to have her baby, Van, and I missed her so much. No one could ever replace Erika, she is truly one of a kind.
Then I was given Shelley. He has been with me every day. He runs around like a chicken with his head cut off most days of the week but we get everything done that needs to get done. We have some great memoires together, as well as some interesting ones. We keep each other level headed when all we want to do is scream, we feed off each other’s energy.
All three of them are amazing, they truly make me who I am today, and are amazing people.
You also can’t forget about my AMAZING sales team in back, they are all amazing women. They have seen it all. We have had some crazy weddings, group guest requests, and crazy people. They have always supported the desk in every way and been by our side. From Rosemary to Miki to Jane. They might work me crazy some days but everyday it is worth it, I know that if I need something they will always be there for me, no questions asked, I will miss all three of them they are amazing.
Finally my Co-Workers. What can I say. They are great. I have worked with a lot of them over the years. Let’s see if I can name them all off, sorry if I forget you…. Paige (aka Paris), Libby, Taylor, Darci, Tyler, Chris, Jen, Ashley, April, Laura, Ken, Chad, AnnaLyn, Mikala, Jill, Gabby, Dawn, Michael, Liz, Cory, Tami, Nannette, Cory, Lisa, Shelia, Debra, Cat, Keisha and Andre. That’s a lot of agents that I have gotten to know. I can honestly stay that have I gotten along with everyone of them hell no, but have they all made me who I am today, yes. I am also honored to have worked with each and every one of them on daily basis. Some of them I still work with, them are gone but I still think about a lot of them, wonder where they are and what they are doing. I wish them all the best of luck!
I will miss my HGI Family so much. They have loved me well. I know that I will get to still be with them one day a week but I will not get to see ALL of them on that one day and that will make me so sad. I wish them all the best and until I get to see them again! xoxo
