Meet my newest employee — Sierra. In her quest to earn more money for those infernal Webkinz, she asked was there any work she could help me with.
Sierra is the most serious of the triplets — many people have remarked that she is an “old soul”. She certainly is the most like me.
I looked at her for a long moment, then said “Ok. Meet me at my desk in 5 minutes.”
I decided to try out her data entry skills, copying and pasting articles into the article tracking system, which I developed in hopes of tracking the massive amount of content being developed for our growing network of authority sites.
Guess what? She took to it like a champ! Worked 2 hours one day and 1-1/2 hours the next. Then we got caught up in the birthday party preparations and end-of-the-school year activities so it’s kind of fallen by the wayside.
But seeing how easily she achieved this task has given me a whole new appreciation for just how much my children are capable of. After all, as of May 20th, they are 10 years old!
Of course the other 2 are begging for a “job” now but I’m stalling until I know they can match Sierra’s level of concentration. She’s really, really good.
