Day 18: Promotion

Vanessa: So, when you worked in Columbia, you weren’t doing this position,
right?
Lauren: No, I worked at the front desk, which was mainly just checking people in
and out, taking reservations over the phone or in person. But, this was a big
promotion for me and I’m glad to be here.
