As you know, if you have been reading, my parents have gone on vacation, and they have left me in charge. Typically my parents handle all of the chalet business, but I have witnessed the workings of their side for quite some time so I should be comfortable with doing it by myself.
... It is more difficult than I thought it would be. I receive, and reply to many phone calls through-out the day, and I find myself wanting to change entire policies for a customer because of my reluctance to face confrontation! I want to say "Yes that is how much you have to pay! Not the price that I said, I am so sorry! My parents are away and I am just getting used to this!"
See, I know that I have the correct prices on my side... and in all honesty they aren't really able to argue with me... and I do tell them the correct prices, but I still feel like I am the one in the wrong.
At the same time this job is rewarding. There are people who come to the farm and don't have a complaint in the world! So I just remember that this place is a peaceful escape for many who usually don't get that. And I am going to enjoy my time here.
