First Day of the New Job
June 30th 2004
Just finished my first day at my new job. I’m loving it so far. The people there are great. Whereas at my previous employment, when you walked in the door you could just feel the negative energy/angst/gossip floating around, when I go to work now, everyone is very laid back and casual. Of course at the Vet things got so busy and hectic, it was understandable that a lot of people would tend to stress themselves out. Now for the pros and cons:
Pros of my new job:
More pay
Better Hours, day hours where I don’t have to get up too early, and I’m home in time for dinner and sunlight. Plus I get off most weekends and EVERY Sunday.
Less stressful. Less phone calls, less ‘busy’ atmosphere
MY OWN OFFICE. Yes, I will have my own office, my own desk which I can decorate/organize how I see fit, my own computer WITH internet access. Though I will be careful not to abuse this segment
I really do love the people. One of the guys bought me lunch today, they offer me to go out on smoke breaks with them, even though I don’t smoke. We just stand outside and chat. And they are allowed many smoke breaks.
Hour lunch break! Compared to the Vet where we weren’t really allowed to eat OR have breaks
No more scrubs. I can wear normal work attire. They will assign 1 or 2 sets of uniforms just to have, but for the most part just regular work attire
Off every holiday
NO TRAFFIC. Where I work, I go the opposite way that everyone is going in the AM and the PM. Plus I take a lot of back roads
Cons of my new job:
I’ll have to take out my eyebrow piercing every day
When I worked at the vet, I already had a background with animals. This is an entirely new field for me so I have much learning to do
Going to have to take some training courses
Still dealing with customers, but no where near the severity as the Vet
Overall I am so ecstatic that I have this job it’s not even funny. I plan to study as much as possible the material I was sent home with. I will kickass.
