A definite referral for a Virtual Assistant

Although I do not personally endorse businesses nor do I advertise on other's behalf, I have to say that I am making an exception for one lady.

After posting an ad on Craigslist for help with a company that I work with, we were in need of someone to help us in an administrative sense.� Data Entry, Incoming Phones, etc...� Well, we were worried about not having the finances to hire someone to come into the office, thinking that was our only solution.... We were wrong!

After receiving an email in reference to the ad, she introduced herself as a Virtual Assistant and quite capable of handling the tasks needed, but from her home.� Although we needed someone to also help us with the phones, she provided an alternate solution versus having to have someone actually in the office.

So after much discussion and comparison in the amount of money we would actually be saving if this situation worked out, we gave her a chance.... It has now been a total of 2 weeks and things couldn't be going any smoother!

For the data entry part, well, we had hired someone on a temporary basis before putting the ad with the expectation that she would work for us right up to her ending date, that didn't happen, she just stopped coming in and our stuff was backing up big time despite our own attempts to keep it up to date... yeah, that didn't happen.� So when our VA started, despite that we had a lot of backed up work to get caught up on, she didn't charge us anything more, in fact she agreed to work a full weekend so that we could start out fresh that coming Monday.

We sent her a packet of pdf's with client information that needed to be entered into our database, mind you this was what she referred to as 'doc to data', there were over 500 individual pdf forms with client information...� We expected her to take all weekend, not!� By 3:00 pm on Saturday, after working on them a total of approximately 4.5 hours, she was done.� After sending her the residuals of what had come in on our side, we sent to her email in the same pdf format, approximately 75 additional, within 35 minutes she was done!

So I am personally endorsing this lady, awesome awesome awesome!� Not only does she specialize in Office Support and administration for bands and bars (marketing, websites, etc...), but she has over 20 years experience with the servicing side of the Mortgage Industry (our reason for hiring her).

If you would like more info, you can send her an email at virtualhelp4u@live.com, let her know that I sent you.� By the way, I do have permission to disclose her email address.� She does have a business website but would prefer email contact to start with.

Do I need a title?

So I'm not really good at keeping journals. Ever. But you know what people say. Writing things down can help you figure yourself out. So here I am, writing my first entry on probably one of the billionth online journal sites I've found. See, I'd keep a physical journal. Like a note book or something.�Except I happen to be a pretty messy person. So I'd lose it in about 3 or 4 hours. That's only a guesstimate though. So I doubt that anybody's actually reading this, but if you are, I suppose I should introduce myself...

�Well I'm not going to. So you should probably stop reading now if you were expecting some incredibly fancy summary of my life and who I am. If I already knew who I was, I wouldn't be here writing down rubbish and trying to "discover my real self". I kind of wonder if there's any sophisticated people on this site or if it's just a bunch of depressed people who want to complain�about their life and right dark poetry. I semi�scanned through the user entries and didn't really see anything too inspirational. No offence guys, but you really could vamp up what you're going to put on here. Sorry if I offend anyone, but I wasn't really expecting to have any readers by now.

Right now my sister is blasting some modern rap music that could possibly make my ears bleed while doing some weird dance that shouldn't even be legal. I sort of want to tell her to shut it off but I guess it'll be something else I can hold over her head later. On account that I have my camera taping the whole thing while she reamains completely oblivious. You probably think that everyone in Alaska rides caribou and dresses like Sarah Palin. Well, I wouldn't know. I don't live in Alaska, I just wish I did. I mean, who likes humidity anyways?

I have a whole theory about my future living in Alaska. Everything will be awesome because I'll never have to worry about frivolous things like sweat stains or frizzy hair. Not only that, but the girl to boy ratio in Alaska is like totally out of whack, so I would have no problem ever having a boyfriend. I mean, who needs a bunch of girls running around raining on my parade. I've found that girls tend to be totally annoying and way to complex for me to have anything to do with, and all they do is stab you in the back and then steal your boyfriend. Who wants that?

So I've decided I'm going to try and make this first entry here so long nobody will be able to finish it. That would be completely epic. I have found that lately there is absolutely nothing good in the theaters. Everything is rated R, which of course I can't get in to. They have police outside the doors to every theater, so movie hopping isn't an option. Oh and they require ID, it's totally whack. Anyways, there's no good movies that are PG-13. I don't know if the directors and movie makers realize, but there is a substantial group of people who range from the ages of 13 to 16. They are called "A large majority of most teenagers". I think I could easily say teenagers are one of the most influential groups in Hollywood. I mean, we decide what's what. It's cool to have like 2 or 3 good R movies in theaters, but seriously. The only movie that's not rated R is Shorts, which is rated PG. Which is pretty much like stabbing my eyes.

I mean, I don't know if they think we're completely niave nowadays or something, but we actually know a decent amount about sex and violence. I mean, it's not like we're all innocent little Catholic school girls who have the sex education of a 6 year old or something. And they think we can't watch violence because it'll influence us to like kill people or something. But we can't really get a hold of guns or anything. By allowing adults to watch violence, they're encouraging adults to go out and buy guns and murder their bosses or something. See? It's retarded. They think we're influenced by every little thing we see. If that was so, I'd be an Obama fanatic right now. But despite the medias effort at such I still completely hate the guy. Just because I watch someone kill someone in a movie (that is so clearly edited) doesn't mean I'm going to run out like a barbarian with a kitchen knife and slaughter the first person I see.

If I was influenced by everything I saw, I wouldn't ever have a clear idea of anything. I'd be surfing the web and run across an add telling me to go buy a goat. Then I'd be like "Hey I want a goat". Then I'd see another add that told me I should never buy a goat. Would my mind automatically change and I wouldn't want a goat anymore? I mean, our minds aren't that volatile?�I really don't think so. Otherwise I'd be running around looking like a giant ball of lard and screaming like Eric Cartman. But I'm not, and I'm a total South Park fanatic. So what are the adults getting at? I think they just want to deprive us of any entertainment.�

I mean, I remember when I was like 9 years old. I'd be watching something on TV, and then one of those ads would come on. It'd be like advertising some awesome product that a normal 9 year old would totally want, and then some number would pop up on the screen. And it'd be like call this now and get your (insert product here)! But not if you're not 18!�Then the add would end and you'd be left like "What the fuck?". Wondering how they could seduce you and then take it all away. That's just cruel. Perfect example of how adults just want us to suffer. Mwahahahahahahahhaahaaa...

Honestly this is just getting boring. I will now proceed to copy and paste this long, obnoxious message on several other sites. That's right, I'm a pandemic. You can't stop me. You're probably wondering "Is this the first site?�Or has she posted it on like 6 others before this?"...

No way. There's no way in hell someone actually read all this. Adios.

Why am I even saying bye?
