Two weeks in… Still trying to take it all in. There is so much that I don’t know, that I can’t state many absolute truths yet. In other words, there are some things I can say, and there are some things I can’t say… allow me to illustrate:
I can say that…
– I love my job
– I am happy
– I am comfortable with the idea of working here for many years to come
– I love not having a laptop (I get a desktop)
– I like being in a room with so many women who are around my age (so much potential for new friendships!)
– I love working with doctors
– I love my boss
– I’m loving the chocolate culture on this floor. Someone just stopped me in the hallway and just gave me a Kit Kat. I am DEAD serious. They even have a chocolate closet, where people bring random candy to share.
– I am not afraid of going to bed early. I used to drag the night on and on so that tomorrow would never come.
– I want to have my boss’s job eventually. I admire her and want to be like her.
– I love being able to give blood, and help hospital research studies (for money). That’ll be my bonus system 🙂
I can’t say that…
– I can’t wait for it to be Monday or to get up in the morning.
– Everyone in my office liked me right away, nor can I say that I love everybody.
– I am 100% comfortable with everyone in my office. I hate getting-to-know-you pains.
– I know exactly what is expected of me yet
– That I know what I’m doing
– I know what my lunch situation will be going forward. So far I’ve had lunch at my desk alone, but Fridays more people are interested in eating together. Except for today, when only one person wants to have lunch with me.
So there you have it. I got a whole bag of mixed feelings, but I think the consensus is that this job is a great fit for me. Let’s see how long the euphoria lasts.
