The quote I often think of is not mine but one a previous leader of an organization at work that I was in. The quote was "Have you done your personal best today?" There are days I can say yes and those are more days then days where I go..I could have done better. I normally get up at 5:30 am Monday to Friday and I am at the office anywhere from 7 to 7:30 am and I leave around 4 to 4:30 pm. My current work is reviewing suggestions from our frontline agents and managers on ways to improve the customer experience. These suggestions are ways to make what they do to bring a better customer experience. My team then engages with our partners to bring about these changes which in results creates a better experience with the customer.

Well, here's my quote, having worked an eternity in customer service. Wish I had learned it sooner. "Every day at work you will meet a nice person, and a total jerk. It's the one you choose to "take home with you" that makes all the difference in the world." (that is, don't dwell on the bad one!)
I am retired. Yippee! At my last job, I had to be there at 8. I had to leave the house by 7:30 and pray for no bad traffic (should have left 10 minutes earlier). I would get up at 5:30. Why? Because I have Rheumatoid Arthritis, making it difficult to get my body in gear. Before that, I was a morning person, and could be up and out in no time flat. I also had to take care of the dog prior to going to work- food, water, medicines, walk, etc.
The job was at the state workforce office, where I worked with unemployed people looking for jobs - taught classes, worked in the computer lab, wrote resumes, tried to build self-confidence, etc. It was fun, and rewarding, but the pay was horrible.
Hope this helps!

To support the team I conduct team meetings, perform quality checks, communicate monthly productivity/performance results, ensure completion of corporate compliance training, communicate EH&S (Environment, Health, and Safety) information, perform safety EH&S Reviews, and provide opportunities for ongoing growth and development training.
One of my favorite quotes is by Aristotle - "Quality is not an act, it is a habit".
