I am thinking of changing my name to
Giggling lady
or
Blushing lady
As you know a large part of my work involves talking on the phone. Here is a small sample of a few of today's calls.

you're lucky work is such fun - i think u should stick to lady in red - cos in red you can do al those things like flirt and giggle and blush. plus it gives you that edgy sound. just my tuppence ha'p'worth
You're such a flirt! *giggle*
Ive always found that men respond far more favourably to a happy, engaging phone operative... :)
Whatever you change to you will always be Lady in Red to me, or at least Lady!..xx
Raj is your boss? Raj from SMH????
Mei I do enjoy my work but it is also very tiring some days the phone and fax machine are relentless we are constantly chasing our tails but we always have time to make conversation with our customers no matter how busy we are. It is the rest of the work that suffers. I have worked out that if I did a 9 hour day instead of 8 (ok I mostly work an extra half hour anyway and am always being told to 'go home LiR') Or perhaps if we switched the phones off for the last hour. I just might get all my work done.
But as you say I am very lucky to have found a job that I enjoy so much
Vi I know isn't it fun giggle
Cake I believe in answering the phone with a smile on my face. They might not see it but they will hear it. I am sure that when I first started this job I must have come across as very serious but now I am over the nerves and know what I am doing most of the time and when I don't I know enough to bluff it I am sure I must be coming across as cheerful which puts other people in a better mood even if they were cross when they started.
emma I think I shall be Lady in Red for a long time yet
dj no I don't work as SMH and Raj was just a name I plucked out ot the ether. btw I have passed on your reply to my boss. You do realise that I work in sales which is not everyone's cup of tea, I certainly never thought it would be mine.
