Day 4, 10/4/14

Day 4 consisted of mainly finishing the jobs that had been given to me throughout the week.
I tackled my fear and phoned Sainsbury's and Morrisons to ask if they would be interested in getting involved with a client and offering free eye examinations. Unfortunately, I was forwarded through to numerous people in Sainsbury's and the lady I needed to speak to was out of the office all day. Morrisons never answered the phone.


The most consuming task of the day, was continuing the Excel task of compiling those who had opened a particular email. There were various subtasks involved such as separating the internal and external people and collating for each week before putting the weeks all together. I felt elated once I had finally finished, only to realise i actually needed to compile another one for a different sector - one was property and one was retail.
I began work only to realise that I had accidentally done February of property and the rest of retail. So I spent some time figuring out how to rectify this issue and still maintain efficiency. I wanted to fix it myself and make sure that I was still using my time effectively, so I cracked on with it and managed to make some headway before the end of the day. I knew I wouldn't finish it by the end of the week (as I don't do Fridays) so I double-checked with Gemma, who had given me the task, when it was due and she said I had time, so that calmed some of the pressure.
