Nothing To Do... Day Two

Today I arrived at work at 7:30. No one else was there so I started setting up my address book on LotusNotes.

There are three people who are supposed to be in charge of training me, two of them were in a meating all day long and the other one had a time-sensitive project that she had to finish. About 11am I was finally given a job manual that was created by the girl who left my position in January.

About 12:30 I took another one of my "lunch hours" to do more homework and then about 2:15pm I was finally given a project to do. I was given a hard copy of an excel spreadsheet that had changes written on it that she wanted me to go through the file and make all the changes. She told me to take my time, and I thought I did! Until I took it to her all finished and she told me that I work too fast. About 10 minutes later she gave me another one and I was told to SLOW DOWN.

At 4:30 I left the office and bravely set out on my journey to get to class on time during Dallas rush hour traffic. I made it to school about 5:10 and changed into my uniform in the bathroom.

After class I came home and began working on updating my blog. I will pack my lunch and be heading to bed in the next few minutes. Two more days of working 7:30 - 4:30 and class from 5:30 - 10:30.

As my friend txredgirl so eloquently says... We Can Sleep When We Die.

Well.. a temporary death awaits me, will resurrect myself in the morning.

Hey missy,

Why don't you use your time between completing your spreadsheets and actually turning them in to do your homework. magically making your boss think that you actually slowed down.

By the way, did you ever get your shoes?
