After our usual typing practice, we spent the entire class working on our elective assignment. I think Marc is incredibly patient when answering questions and responds to complaints/concerns with genuine empathy.
What I Did Today
Today I spent the first hour looking at job listings. Like yesterday, I looked at Zip Recruiter exclusively focusing on Customer Service positions in the East Bay. Again, and maybe it’s because I’m not used to Zip Recruiter’s layout, I didn’t come across a whole lot of jobs that meet the criteria I’m looking for. But I will keep at it tomorrow.
I moved on to the Emergency Food & Grocery List by County where I am taking the data from Google Sheets and transferring it the Google Doc. Abdul was adding a few more to the Google Sheet so I took a pause while he finished adding. During the pause, I participated in Mock Interviews for the CTT group where I was the interviewer instead of the interviewee. I enjoyed it.
I got back to the Food & Grocery list and added the new ones from Abdul. There was only a few. When I get back to it tomorrow, I’ll be starting with San Bernadino County and hope to finish the project by the end of the day tomorrow.
