First Day At "TheLiquorDistributor"

Day One of Crazy Week is over.

I arrived at "TheLiquorDistributor" at 8:30 this morning. They showed me to the two open cubicles and said I could choose where to set up my desk. After a few minutes I realized that I had been left alone to set up my desk that was pretty much already set up.

About 9:15 they said the lady from HR was going to come get me and get me set up on paperwork, etc. and new employee orientation and that they really didn't want to try to start training me on anything in case she came and interrupted what we were doing.

At 10:00 the IT guys came down to set up my computer and then started installing all the WindowsUpdates that looked like they hadn't been done in a year or two. All the while, I just kinda sat there waiting.

After my computer was finished where I could log on, I took my "lunch hour" and finished up some homework that was due last night. Then realized I hadn't been set up on the mainframe computer and that after they did, that I would have to wait until tomorrow before it would refresh and see the change.

At 3:30 the HR lady finally came and got me, handed me paperwork and sent me back to my desk to fill them out. I took them back to her and that was about all there was to my orientation.

About 5:30 I went home, having accomplished just about NOTHING on my first day of work.

I had class at 7pm and I got home about 9:15. After a little dinner and repacking my lunch kit and stuff for tomorrow I am headed to bed. Night All!
