I am the mother of 3 teens who keep me on my toes with their teenage sneakiness. They seem to think I was never their age or something, little do they know half the things I did at their age.... I am 41 years old and a transplant from MI thanks to my former employer.I am now officially a former Circuit City employee because I made too much money for doing my job to the best of my ability - go figure!!!!
Now I am catching up on much needed rest and family time at least till I find another job. Anyways if anyone knows of a place hiring that isn't afraid to pay their employees based on their performance instead of based on other companies standard drop me a line. I am an excellent employee that knows how to get the job done and take care of the customer without compromising company standards. I also have management experiences and am a quick learner to new challenges.
