How I am (or you can be) ......a multi tasking real estate agent!
WooHoo! By: Celeste "SALLY" Cheeseman, Century 21 Liberty Homes, Mililani, Hawaii
1) I think you have to be a woman anyway, right? (trying to give myself an edge here...haha)
2) Get the fastest internet service provider there is. (my husband just got us "Turbo Roadrunner "....and I just "know" it's faster because it's $10.00 more per month!)
3) After you get the fastest internet service....you can open many windows at one time, (if you have Vista it has windows cascading so you know which one you're at or want to go) you can check the internet for pictures to put in your blog, type a blog, answer comments on the other window you have open for Active Rain (gotta have two window open for this!) work on your listing, flyer, outlook and emails, files you're working on etc. all at one time.
4) While waiting for a new comment from A/R to notify you of new comments to your post...you can open your spreadsheet for tax stuff (i.e spreadsheet has commission/any fees taken out/my % and net after estimated taxes) and start doing the math for current taxes owed.
5) Now write your checks for Federal and State estimated taxes owed (thank God I already sent in the GET tax check! Oh, and by the way, our GET went up a half percent so we can all pay for the rail system that should be "breaking ground" around 2009? You got to see the cartoon on The Biggest Turkey of them All.)
I gotta ask all of you Rainer's out there.....how many of you agents would cart around a client on the rail system? So why do we have to pay that extra? I haven't been on a bus in 7 years (emergency and should have taken a taxi) and will definitely not utilize this system when they voted for it to go through places I rarely go anyway!
6) Run and check on the Pork Chops/steamed vegies in the Turbo Cooker (do you folks have one of these? Man, you don't have to worry about burning anything....just keep adding water. HAR HAR)
7) Ask your husband/wife to get up and make the mashed potatoes so you can finish the blog (hard to do that if you're typing...so gotta include family for multi-taskin)
8) Have your husband/wife serve you while you're still typing and eat biteful in between typing words. (make sure and thank him!)
9) Jump up real quick and make copies of the checks and voucher's that you forgot to do a minute ago.
10) Answer a comment real quick while answering cell phone and jotting down info of agent showing property.
11) Stuff the envelope with the checks.
12) Listen to your husband/wife faintly - telling you to get off the PC already!
13) Make like you don't hear...Didn't work.
14) Tell husband/wife sure honey! Sllloooowwwwllllly close out windows while doing last minute answers for blogs, emails
15) Add a couple more pictures before posting blog
Done! Hope you all had a Happy Easter Day..... Because this is how my day went so far.....darn...signing off....Sally!
