A work update



Hey lovely people. I'm a bit quiet in the blog world at the moment because working nearly full time is really taking it out of me. I'm exhausted already, but I just need to get used to all the changes. Here are a few of my thoughts so far.

♥ Today I finally did some proper work and it's going well
♥ I'm starting to know the people I work with and really hit it off with one of the other girls in my little hub
♥ I'm not used to all the flexibility and being able to have a chat
♥ I have a work email :) and I get so excited checking it
♥ I went to my first work meeting today and was welcomed to the team
♥ I get flexi time (flex time is time off when you do extra hours) so I cut my lunch break to get extra hours
♥ There's a morning tea next week to welcome all the new people. I used to pay out Jason for his work place always having morning teas. Haa. 
♥ I love being able to wear clothes other than black and white
♥ Jason's work place is only up the street from mine so we get to go to work together (and my dad is on the level below me. He works for the same company)
♥ Working in the government is great!

So really, my biggest hurdle is time management. I need to work out when to do the washing, cleaning the house and I really don't feel like cooking dinner when I get home. It's a good thing that Jason has been home for a few days and he cooked :)

Right now I'm pretty exhausted but in time my body will get used to it. I might have to start scheduling posts or I will never blog.

It's been a good week so far and I'm also excited for this!!

You sound very happy. Glad you're enjoying your new job. There are so many good things as I see, so just enjoy it, go out for dinner a bit more often in the next weeks and you'll get used to it in no time.

Oh congrats! I just started a new job too and it is only part time but I have found my self not having good time management. I still find myself too busy to blog and workout...so pathetic how that happens! But good luck with everything! I'm glad you are liking it! New jobs are kind of stressful sometime...just learning the system...I am still working on that!

So, I was listening to music while reading your post and I couldn't figure out where this odd extra noise was coming from. So, I turned my music off and went crazy trying to figure out which tab had music attached - them I realised it was the noise of fire from The Hunger Games picture! I love that it has a noise attached!!

How good are flexi hours? I'm on a day off today because of them!
