| The problem |
| 11.02.06 (10:57 am) [edit] |
| The problem with having a job where you actually want to do work means neglecting blogging! I had my first day yesterday. Right now I am just taking a short break since I am too hungry to concentrate on my template. My Word is not being very cooperative. I wonder where my manager is... He wasn't here yesterday, and he is still not in the office yet. Good thing I am taking the initiative to do something. I'm too efficient though. That's why slacking makes me work at the rate of a regular person :) The office environment is so different here. I really miss having a kitchen. They have some appliances here, but a real sink with dishsoap would be really nice. I've also brought in my own cutlery and dishes!! I hoped I would get a least a little teary at my last day of work at the other place, but I didn't :( It took me about an hour and a half to make my rounds to say bye to everyone. Some people I skipped. Some people weren't around. I felt bad that I didn't get a chance to say bye to some of them. One thing I learned from leaving my job is that I really should contribute to the gift. I was given a Tommy Hilfiger watch. I thought I was going to get a gift card. I appreciate that I was given a gift, but I am already thinking about how I can return it. I didn't get a gift receipt!! 1. I don't wear anything Tommy. 2. I don't wear watches. I have been given about 4 watches over the last few years. I use my cell phone to keep time. On rare occasion I might wear a watch while I'm on holiday. Oh, my boss is in now. I should end the post now. And I've learned that I need to be logged in to reply to comments! Hurrah! |

lol @ bringing your own dishes and cutlery! That is SO something I would do, lol. Maybe you could sell the Tommy watch on ebay?

Do you eBay a lot?? I've never done anything on eBay except look up Cabbage Patch Kids!! There are still some dolls out there from the 1980s that were never taken out of the box!!
I hate bringing my dishes and cutlery! I hate lugging all this stuff around!! And there is no dish soap. People have been using hand soap to do dishes!!!

It would have been nice if the page said that we had to be logged in to comment instead of coming up with a blank page! But at least we know now!! And knowing is half the battle!

*L* I hope being efficient = more raises and not higher expectations of my potential!

Actually I roam around ebay a lot but have never won an auction. I got my daughters flowers for her wedding off ebay, well I found the distributor and contacted them directly. I've bid on several things have never sold anything. Seems to be a pretty good system, especially for collectibles like you've got :)

My paycheque doesn't seem to change much :( Hopefully things will be a little different for the better here!

eBay seems to have worked well for most people, but I can't seem to take the plunge.
