Okay, so this blog is mostly for my own purposes and my own records. No other real reason. But feel free to read if you like.
Sooo... I've been at my current job for four months. One month as a temp, and three months as a permanent employee/owner. So, the time has come for my 90 day review.
I'm not worried about it at all. I know I kicked ass. I just hate reviews. And, like just last week, I put in 78.75 hours. Ever hear the saying "All work and no play?" Well, my bank account is happy, so who cares? lol.
Besides, I'll have plenty of time to play when the time is right. So, here's a record of what I've accomplished in my time at my new job. It helps that I've kept a record (and back-ups) of everything I've done since day one.
Technical Implementation Specialist:
QA'd 28 Clients which includes 80 destination feeds I've QA'd, of which I rejected 70 feeds.
I've done 2 feed analyses, and built built 9 inbound feeds and 9 optimization feeds.
I've also built 68!!! outbound feeds.
Additionally, I created the QA Status log to track all rejections and feed change requests prior to delivery, and wrote the QA SOP.
In only four short months, I have accomplished ALOT.

So, now... For anyone who actually read that with any interest...
If you are wondering what a feed is, I'll tell you. My job is to get data from retailers, such as Walmart, Target, Best Buy, eToys, etc. I take that data and put it in a format to clean it up and make it look nice. Our optimization department categorizes all the products in those feeds and sends it back to me, where I build different feeds, based on requirements, to send to places like Yahoo Shopping, Shopping.com, Performics, Kelkoo, Amazon, Shop.com, and many more. In order to build those feeds, I use programming and several in-house UI's to manipulate and format the data.
Now, I'll let you get back to your regularly scheduled program, providing I haven't put you to sleep. lol.
