A Suprise!

So today my call team was working - obviously since we were at work. My supervisor had been gone for two weeks and today was her first day back so we were all really striving to do our best and make her proud ya know. Then we're sitting at our little cubicle/desks and she tell us all to "Get off the phone right now. If your talking to someone tell them you'll call back later."

So we were all really really apprehensive about what was going on and scared that we were in trouble or something. Then our manager and my supervisors boss comes up and talks to her more (they'd been in a meeting before she came out and told us to stop calling). So then we go in one of the big offices and like sitting there, all staring at each other like scared/unsure puppies. Our manager Mr. Hart popped his head in and just said "I'm proud of you guys, your truely awesome." Then we sat there for awhile before Ms. Skirving my supervisor *finally* tells us whats up. Turns out, my call team and another one of the teams from Global Expeditions Call Center Promotions (where we work) had been temporarly put on a different calling job. So for the rest of October we will be working as Aquire the Fire callers. We'll be calling youth pastors everyday and signing them up to go to our ATF events. It's really weird. We have to switch shifts too. I'm B shift right now - basically everyone i know on campus is B shift - we really don't get to see A shifter's that often because they work mornings B shift works afternoon and nights. So now we are going to be A shift as well. So that means waking up in the morning before all my roommates and leaving for work before they do! So we probably won't be seeing much of each other for the rest of October...sadly. We'll see each other at nights of course in the room, but that's basically it. But it's pretty exciting. Like, these two teams were hand picked out of all the call centers on this campus. ATF is really struggling, events aren't getting sold, seats are empty and the season has just started. So they've recruited (i totally ruined the spelling of that) us to help fill the seats and call more youth pastors and pastors everyday. I feel blessed. Like, i know God has called us to switch our jobs temporarily for a reason. Something great is going to happen, we just have to be obedient and let Him do His thing! lol But yea, nevertheless it's going to be difficult so prayers are definately appreciated and welcomed! We're going to have to be trained tomorrow on how to call for ATF. So i'll be facing the world at 9am instead of ....gosh i think we had class at 12 yesterday so i wouldn't have had to get up for awhile! Tuesdays are usually sleeping in days for B shifters!

But yea anyhow - i wanted to share my exciting news with you all. It will be a journey - i can't wait to see what's at the end of the road!
