Hi everyone,
I'm just dead tired at the moment. I just want to go to bed for a nap but I can't. If I do, I won't be able to sleep well tonight because I'm working tomorrow morning. I seriously want to put my head on the pillow super bad.
So yesterday was my first day at work. I'm not sure if I liked it or not. It has nothing to do with the job itself but an event that happened. So I was supposed to start at 9am. I took the bus at 7h30 and got to the subway station at 8am. So I have an entire hour to get at the job which is more than enough. After passing through a couple of subway stations, it stopped running for at least 15 minutes. The subway then announces that the service will be halted for an undetermined time. Are you serious?????? I looked at the time and it was 8h30. That's when I began to panic. After all the turmoil I had to go through during the past year including school, I do not need more stress than I already have. So I went outside the subway. People were everywhere and it was so crowded. Maybe I should take the cab? Where are the cabs? I see none. At that point I told myself that I would probably be fired. Being late is one thing but late on the first day? *sigh* I didn't know what to do. On top of that I was in my '' week ''. I started to feel dizzy. I just wanted to cry and go back home to sleep.
An employee comes out from the subway and screams the service is back. So I got late for work but the boss was understanding...but I know I didn't give a really good impression. I was just so nervous about the fact that I was late that I couldn't concentrate at work but it was all ok afterwards. It was a stressful day and I left the workplace overwhelmed. Maybe I was just way tired and couldn't sleep well the night before. I just can't understand why I keep getting his kind of bullshit with the public transit. Don't forget I had the same experience during my exam day.
The good new is that when I worked today, it was a better experience than yesterday. So I am pretty much relieved. The work is not really complicated. I just need to get used to the products we're selling and everything should be ok. However there are few things I'm not to appealed with all this. It's super far. So tomorrow, I have to wake up at 5h45 to get at work at 8 am. lol it's crazy. The first bus that comes on Saturday morning is 7h30 so there's no way I can get to work in time. Because of this, I have to use an alternative bus. The second problem which is the main one is the amount of working hours. I will be given 20 hours each week when I thought I would be given 10 hours. So I have to make sure I study well enough and be well organized.
So that's about it. You guys have a great weekend. I must go study now. =_= Cya!
