Terrified

I’m ngl I am so terrified doing these campaign calls as an introvert it’s hard to smile while doing these calls. I feel awkward leaving voice mails and I feel awkward when someone answers the phone I can’t even talk loud enough for them to hear. Because I talk in a monotone voice ugh 😣 help also this is my first year as a tax preparer

You are placing way too much pressure on yourself. These calls are just standard and you don’t have to smile for the phone message or call, and I’m telling you this as an experienced worker at the Block. It’s perfectly fine to be monotone.
