First Day

Today was my first day in a job I'm extremely grateful to have despite a bit of a hiccup in my school path. And although I'm extremely grateful, I feel like I would be doing a disservice to this blog if I didn't share my first day, which was awkward even for me. There were various aspects that I will place in bullet-point form:

A.) Showing up to work without officially knowing where/when to go and no one really knowing that I'm starting there
B.) Changing roles from being a fellow-study buddy to a tutor within a week (note this is awkward for both aspects as my formal tutors are now supposedly my work-mates)
C.) A meeting that consisted mostly of eating and random mumbling between people
D.) Introductions where the introducer forgot several people's names (thankfully I wasn't one of them)
E.) Sitting in a corner (lurking) as is my new role for training to learn the tricks of the trade
F.) Down time with no place to go = me investigating things on my phone extremely intensely (thank goodness for my iPhone)
G.) Ending the day with the Assistant to the Director telling me he didn't think it was a good idea that I'm starting in my role, but since the Director said it was okay, I'm here, but just for my information he doesn't think I should start now.

Awesome. Can't wait to see what day 2 will bring.
