Work

I am employed by Fidelity National Title Company.
It is a Title and Escrow company.

It is the work I actually get paid for doing.

I used to work in Escrow. Escrow is a neutral third party that handles the documents, money, phone calls, signings, etc. of selling, buying and refinancing homes. It is a demanding and stressful job. I am a Notary, but I will only notarize signatures for work purposes.

Now that I am a mom I get to work part-time and part of that time is from home. I work in the Reconveyance department. A reconveyance is a document that is recorded to release a Trust Deed, as proof that someone does not owe that lender or person money anymore. I input every closed Escrow transaction in the Reconveyance database throughout the month at home and I go in to the office, downtown, every Thursday to help with whatever they need to get caught up on. I really enjoy it.

In 2001, after I had Dominick, I went back to work when Dominick was 3 months. I went to work part-time in the Reconveyance department, which was in a warehouse at that time in Milwaukie (close to home). A few older ladies worked there and I brought Dominick and a playpen with me. They loved being "grandmas" to him. And we stopped at Starbucks to visit Auntie Resh on the way to work!

In 2002-2003, When I was pregnant with Brianna I worked in Escrow again, still part-time.

Now I am back in the Reconveyance department, working at home, with Isaac playing in the playpen next to me.
