Pro's & Con's of being a receptionist

I work as a receptionist 5 days a week and to be honest, I love my job. I work for an awesome company and my co-workers are all amazing humans. But unfortunately, my job isn't always rainbows and butterflies. So here is a list of pro's and con's of being a receptionist.

Pro's
I sit down a lot, which is radical for an ultra lazy person.
I talk a lot, which is awesome for a person who enjoys the sound of their own voice.
I don't have to do any "hard" work, like physical or mental.
I get to doodle when I talk on the phone.
I can keep up with my social media throughout the day.
I get an entire 60 mins for lunch if I want.
I can spin around in my desk chair when I get bored.
I get to send important sounding emails to people.
I'm literally on the phone right this very second.
I talk to people from all over the US.
I sometimes talk to people from all over the world.
I made a paper clip necklace once.
I can pinterest if I get bored.

Cons's
I get really bored sometimes.
I get frustrated when people from the east coast call because they have super dumb accents.
I have to do a lot of filing (papercuts make me sad).
Sitting makes me sleepy sometimes.

That's all I got for now. Maybe one day I'll add to this list. Who knows.
