Hi all happy Friday. I don't accept men's invites for friends, I did a few and all but one turned out to want to get more info and be more friendly. Good bye to them. It is another warm day. Today is my semi rest day, will do like stretches and ST. Not much new or exciting.
Hugs all.

Good Morning VIP Friends:

I hope you are all doing well this morning. Today is Saturday. Man yesterday was a rush. Wow. I am so excited. Yesterday right before lunch at 1 pm est we got our Supervisor popping into our chat room and requesting we all come back to the main chat right away. She then proceeds to tell us that due to Hurricane Milton and then having lost so many employees due to the power outages we are being called up to hit the production line. Which is take calls. Those that don't know I work from home for AAA Insurance call center. They had so many calls coming in and did not have the man power to keep the wait times short for members. So they called us. This is our first time on Production alone. We usually have a peer coach checking on our calls and making sure we are doing ok. I feel like I did amazing. I took so many calls from 1:30 pm to 5:40 pm. I ended up being on the phone a little later than my clock out time. That does happen. I then texted my boss that I loved it. I was so excited and loved being on the phones. Now I know I am going to love this job.

@SweetPeasMom55 - So I do have one guy in our team. This issue is that we don't ask if people are male or female as it does not matter to our teams as everyone chooses their own team. As Ceri stated I would not be accepting friend requests from Men unless they are in this group, or they are in your team chat. Don't trust it.
@Kurtize - I had the same thing. Guys would friend me and then start asking personal questions and then telling me I looked beautiful and stuff like that. It was annoying to be honest.

Well I hope you all have a wonderful Saturday.

Okay I posted my weigh in for the start of this challenge. My daughter asked me to take her out for Mediterranean while she is in town. My Mom radar knows she has something she wants to talk about. Has she mentioned anything yet? Nope but I ate out hoping she would tell me what's on her mind. I take her to the airport Sunday morning at 3am hopefully she spills the beans soon.

Hi All, so sorry!! I did read through the posts. @Sweetpeasmom55, SADLY MFP doesn't/can't keep up with the Scammers, these are possibly BOTS because as soon as I refuse one another name pops up! I never accept ANY friend's invites unless they are on the 5% challenge. If I were a regular member and not a leader/OAL I'd only accept them if they were on my team (Male or Female) but since we use team chats a lot, I'd stay with that only. You can unfriend them. Here's how.

Go to your page (click on your name in blue on the home page) and scroll down a little bit, on the right-hand side of the page you'll see your friends listed, and there's a trash can (how appropriate for these scammers click on the X in the trash can. BYE BYE THEY GO!!

@VeryKatie , I checked and you hadn't joined Rain Dancers, PLEASE click on the link here to request a team. @Ceriusly1 will take care of you very well. So happy you are with us!!!

I'll do my best to get back here again soon. I am not feeling well so popping on and off.

@Dianedoessmiles1 hopefully some rest will have you feeling better. Just dropped my daughter off at the airport. We had a nice visit and via online I got to see her roller derby team. I love their names. Coaster strudel, diet choke , scream cheese. When I visit it's on our list of things to do to meet the team. Spending a few days together and monitoring and tracking everything I realized grocery shopping is truly no activity. Truly depressing as I run a lot of errands on the weekend. I do park way out but my daughter says as I just shop my list I'm not wandering up and down the isles. There are people who love to shop. I am not one of those people. It's A chore that I do. Get in get out that's my motto.

I did do a bunch of deleting and declining. Very liberating lol. I also went for a walk last night to get some steps in. A little chilly but got it done. Hope everyone is having a nice weekend!!

Good Morning VIP Friends:

I hope you are all doing well this morning. Today is Sunday and we are going to go pick Joe's son up from the Airport this morning. His flight comes in at 11:12 am. Then he has a week to get things around and find somewhere else to live. Unfortunately we found out some things while he was gone that are making us realize he is just using us and he is being kicked out. I know he is Joe's son, but Joe is fed up. Frankly I am too. So we told him he has 1 week to get a new place.

@SweetPeasMom55 - I do hope she spills the beans, but you could ask her what is up. Just tell her your Mom sense was going off. Sorry she did not end up sharing her dilemma.
@VeryKatie - Welcome to the group. I am glad you made it here and we are able to give you a hand.
@Dianedoessmiles1 - Scammers are horrible sometimes. I had several before I uploaded my wedding photo with my husband and I. Then they kinda stopped. Do you need to talk? I am here if you need to message me.

Well I hope you all have a wonderful Sunday.

@Sweetpeasmom55, WOW! Id of been excited as you are with such great buys! I agree! Why send out cards to those who may not even appreciate them. Stamps are getting very expensive. I understand it, but. I get and send out cards. But now I've also switched over to online cards. It's still a card. If y like it alit they download it.

Good Morning Airport Friend:

I hope you are all doing well this morning. Today is Wednesday and I cannot believe how fast the week is flying by. On Monday I took 32 calls and Tuesday I took 29 calls. I am really excited about it. I am trying so hard to make sure I am hitting all my points. I still struggle with the Life referral. Although I did better yesterday offering that. I just have to keep working at it. I finally have the opening down since we have a script we have to follow. Other than that I can say whatever I just have to start with that opening script. So that is pretty awesome.

@Kurtize - Small steps are always the way to go. That is why it takes so long to lose your weight. Small steps work best.
@Dianedoessmiles1 - Joe's son moved out yesterday. He must have gotten mad at us because we refused to give him back the internet so he could game all week. We did give him limited access for job searching and when he asked for full access back we told him that was for working people or job searching. So his friends came and got him yesterday. He left about 2 pm. He is probably now in Missouri. We will not be bringing him back this time. He has burned the bridge with us. He can call and we will give him advice and stuff but we will not be giving him money outside of Christmas and Birthday.

Well I hope you all have a wonderful Wednesday.
