*going to apologize in advance if this doesn’t make sense I’m on a lot of drugs.
I managed to survive my first week of work (barely) I wouldn’t recommend starting a new job with a sinus infection and an ear infection… just an FYI in case you didn’t know that. BUT so far things are ok, just going to take some time to get over my spoiled princess role in my last job… going from working with someone for a long time where you knew all the little quirks, to a new office with a whole set of new quirks is pretty strange to say the least. Also remembering to be nice to people …
I’m pretty pleasant normally so it’s not like its hard exactly, but I mean remembering to ask them about their day and holiday plans and blah blah blah… and then pretending to care and repeating my holiday plans over and over again… don’t get me wrong I can BS with the best of them and I’m not afraid to drag out a conversation but MAN it wears on you!!! (as my friend Steph would say: I’ve been drinking the “haterade”) but UG how many times can you have the same conversation... I've already branched out a little and a nice little bonus- found a jewelry maker (score!) It’s also ruined all my shopping experiences in stores… now when I’m in Publix and they asked me what my plans were for Thanksgiving, all I could think about was some marketing person told her to say that to “connect with the consumer”… I feel cheated and needless to say my shopping was less of a pleasure! ;)
But the good news is none of this is particularly hard and I’m sure it will be even easier when I’m not hacking up internal organs, hopefully week 2 is pretty smooth sailing, now if I could just talk them into getting a Keurig I’d be set I mean who isn’t nicer with coffee!
