quick check-in, just to say I'm alive :)
Jul. 27th, 2006 09:57 pmOkay. Methinks an update is in order.:) I am seriously struggling to keep up with everything this week, what with the new job and getting up at the unholy hour of 6:30 a.m., not to mention ZERO private email access during work hours... which leaves me with over 200 messages too deal with every evening at home. *sigh* In addition to that, I am STILL trying to be a good girl and exercise every day... so I hardly get a moment to do anything else, really (and no, I'm not in bed by 11 p.m., even though I should be).
The job is fine; frankly speaking, a delight for a clinically anal person like me.;P My basic duties consist of signing paperwork, stamping it, sorting through it and filing it away, as well as pulling appropriate documents from files, assembling them according to instructions, verifying in the computer system and stuffing into envelopes to be mailed out. It may seem tedious, but actually requires full attention to get everything right (any slightest mess-up puts the entire department in trouble, LOL). So there's no danger of falling asleep. In fact, I am told that the summer is the slowest season for the company, and that once everything picks up in September we will all be running around like crazy. Which is good in a way, because it makes the days go faster (I've sooo had my share of slow, monotonous, deadly boring days at work lately... LOL). The only thing that bugs me right now is zero computer privacy - practically everyone on the team can see my screen at all times... Not that it seems like there'll be any time to spare for internet browsing anyway...
And now for something completely different - probably of even less interest to anyone on my flist... but hell, it's my journal, so yeah. ( Here be some more exalted gushing over an obscure German goth metal band that owns my soul.:P )
