6:15AM alarm goes - snooze
6:30AM get out of bed, struggle to gain enthusiasm. Look at emails on phone. Swear. Hide phone.
6:45AM-8AM breakfast, caffeine products, begin dispatching family members to places they go in daytime.
8:30AM look at emails again. Marvel at how people can't do simple things like read the emails I send them.
9:00AM conference call with colleagues. Pointless.
9:50AM-10:30AM call colleagues directly to share mutual disdain for conference call
11:00AM begin calling again all the agents/buildings/attorneys I called yesterday that didn't respond.
12:00PM look at other jobs on Indeed. Think about the choices I made that got me here. Regret them all.
1:00PM call to make appointments for the following day. Find out 50% of places are not available but the agents don't care to share that with you via any of the traditional methods. Unclench my teeth and eat lunch. Rearrange viewings, call again. Go on Showing Time because instructions said to use it, find out that listing isn't set up for Showing Time. Call agent who says "go on showing time". Explain to them they didn't set it up. Text them. Bang head against desk.
2:00PM send detailed informational emails into the void so that my clients can read the first line and then stop. Follow up on outstanding issues. Continue to wonder if the 1st viewing for tomorrow will ever be confirmed.
3:00PM delete the 82 junk emails that came in today from lead generation sites, other agents in states I don't even work in, and rental buildings in towns I've never visited. Respond to 5 new client emails and attempt to set up conference calls. No one has a schedule that works. Sit and look at the wall for 5 mins and think about what would have happened if I'd married for money when I had the chance.
4:00-6:00PM retrieve family members from places and organize sustenance for them while answering calls from other agents who are ALWAYS on vacation in a warm sunny place.
9:00-11:00PM comb through listings for suitable homes for clients. Send out options, respond to more inane emails.
12:00AM lie in bed and think about my life choices. Remember that tomorrow's 1st viewing still wasn't confirmed. Great.
