I haven't given an update on myself in awhile. Or really been on CC that much, for that matter.
Work-wise, it's going VERY well. The training program I'm in started when I started back in mid-July. How training works is that the training class pulls in live insurance policies from all across the country where there are agencies. An "assignment" is what I will get when I am out of training, which means instead of working things that are from any agency, I will be working with specific states or agents. Right now, I am learning one line of business, and that training was supposed to go until November or so. Then I would work that line of business on my own for a few weeks before learning the other line of business as well (half day working line I already learned, half day training on new line).
Over a week ago, I had a meeting with my supervisor that was to inform me that I'd be put on a "Fast Track" training program because the trainers believed that I (along with another trainee) were learning quickly and able to move at a faster pace in training topics. I was told I'd be done with training and receive an assignment on October 27th. I was pretty taken aback, I had thought I wouldn't get an assignment for another 3 months! But, I was excited.
Then, last Friday, my supervisor came and got me and took me to his office. He told me that the trainers approached him and said they thought I was ready for my own assignment! So, today, I received my own assignment. It is starting out small so as not to overwhelm me. As I learn the few topics left, the policies I will work on (which are audited during my training since they are real policies) will be from my assignment instead of random ones pulled from everywhere.
So, whew! It's been quite a whirlwind this past week or so!
Other than that....spiritually I'm a mess. Lately I've also been a mess emotionally as well, really dealing with some anger, and I suppose the two are connected.
But, work has been going well, so I'm glad about that.
