1st Day Down on New Job!
 
Well day 1 is done...Wew!....

The hardest part is walking into the office the 1st time...got that part over and everyone was so busy...knew programs having glitches, so I just sort of amused myself for the first little bit...then I went off with a lady for some training...

This job is a two part job...part payroll and the other part a scanning project...they have just created this job for now it is for 6 months...the payroll part is in need as one of our co-workers is not well, so the rest of the crew has taken on the high end of her job and they need help in the bottom end of what they would do, plus they needed help in this scanned project and they came up with this trial postiion.

I covered my bases and took a leave from my job....

On Wed. night the girls invited me out with them, we are going for dinner and the to a movie...I love going out for dinner and I havent' been to a movie in years...

Hi Rose! Good for You! Always pretended on the first day that it was at least two weeks later - 1st days are a little scary. Dinner and a movie sounds good. Had my hair cut today so look like myself - feel better when I look better. Enjoy Wed. night.

I didn't realize this until today...I knew the job was in 2 in 1 split...I didn't know that I was working under the Vice President of the University for part of it...he came into my little office today, I said to one of the gals what is he doing in here....He is your Boss Honey...What do you mean he is my boss!
On Friday afternoon I wheeled my cart of coffee and cookies to him and his Ta Ta's...Monday Morning comes and I am working for him...I had no idea and it is a good thing I didn't, my nerves would have been shot...I just sat there stund and thought what am I doing in here, just what did I apply for...

mmmm...next thought, think I will order up some coffee and cookies! LOL

Rose
For a first day, it sounds pretty good! Each day will get easier. Dinner and movie sounds good for Wed night. That's pretty cool that they are inviting you out already, (but then again, it doesn't take long to see that you are pretty cool too!).
Have a great time Wed. And have a great 2nd day at work!
