No, I haven't gotten one yet, but the opportunity is currently presenting itself.

I'm not ready, of that I am absolutely sure. I've only been with the bank going on five months, or maybe a bit past five...I started June 15th or so...you do the math. I will tell you right now, being a teller is the hardest job in the branch, without question. everyone who is above will tell you their job is hard, but that's only because they never were a teller or they forgot what it was like. Don't get me wrong, I really enjoy it. I enjoy going to work each day, something I thought I wouldn't be saying for many more years and without getting some more school in. But I do, and it's because of the nice environment that makes it so enjoyable that makes me think twice, more then twice, every hour or so for a week, about leaving that position so soon for something else. In this case, I'd be a personal banker.

Being a banker is honestly a cake walk. You sit at your comfy desk with a view most of the day making phone calls to people the computer thinks need some sort of product. If you make the sale, GREAT! If not, dang too bad, call another person. You also help walk in customers looking for new account, and people the tellers have convinced to add new services (At least 50% of all banker customers), I know I'm making it sound like there's no reason I shouldn't apply, it seems like a no brainer...I'm just not sure I'm ready to take that step. I'm not sure I have enough experience, or that I've learned everything I can learn from being a teller. When I leave where I am for another position, I'm pretty much on my own and the learning is over.

The other concern is that I'll go from having an intelligent, loving, dream boss...to having a person who will make me physically sick to work for. This man is an absolute moron, a shit for brains waste of space who everyone at the bank thinks of as a joke, useless, sometimes a comic relief of sorts. But that doesn't stop them all, or me, from hating him. Beyond him being worthless, he's also an asshole..of course. This alone makes me not want the job.

I feel like I can wait a few more months and the job will pop back up again...I know there will be another opportunity.

I'm a little torn.
