Featured CMs - UK

Q1: Tell us a little bit about you.

I am a mother of 4 boys, ages 16, 13, 7 and 5. I live in Southern Mass, with my husband of 8 years and my children. I am going to be 50 ... Someday! :o)~

Q2: How long have you been a Chat Host?

I have been a chat host for 3 and a half years.

Q3: How did you become a Chat Host?

Through another chat host. She was taking on a site of her own, and asked me to join her chat team (Thank you Beth).

Q4: What do you like most about the job?

The people I get to meet and spend time with every day!! From all corners of the world!! Getting to know them, and the type of people that they are. And of course the people I work with!! I have met some GREAT people online. People that I can truly call my FRIENDS!!

Q5: What is the worst part of the job?

This is a tough one. I would have to say when any of the players are not having a very good day. I wish I could see everyone win all of the time :o)

Q6: Which are your favorite chat room games?

Anything that gets players laughing, chatting, and having a good time!! The more they talk the more fun the game becomes!!

Q7: What is the funniest thing that has ever happened whilst you have been in a chat room?

There have been many great times!! But I think one of the most fun times we had was a "battle" so to speak with the cm in the other chat room! We had food fights, water balloon fights. And even silly macro pictures of each other. Lots of laughs and torture!! :-)

Q8: What makes a good Chat Host?

Some one who pays attention! Not just to who wins or loses . but to who is in the room all together. The little things matter. Remembering to say hello or how are you. How did little Johnny do at his game yesterday .. lol .. Making people feel comfortable and relaxed. Have fun, laugh and joke a bit. Just be yourself!!

Q9: How would you like to see online bingo (as a whole) develop?

This is not an easy question to answer !! As I live in the U.S , and I have many feelings on this subject ! But I do hope that in the future, we will all be free to play and work as we please. With bigger and better rewards to come !!

Q10: Any other comments that you'd like to add about being a Chat Host?

I really do love and appreciate the work that I have , the company I work for , and all of the people I have met !! Being a cm means a bit more than just a job. It is more like a family ! One that you get to see and interact with every day! I would not be able to experience all that I have if it wasn't for being a chat host! And for that, I am very grateful!!

All the team here at CMOTY would like to say a big 'TY' to Heather.
