Reflections through Cyberspace

This week I have an induction course at work. I’ve had a quick look at the programme and it looks quite interesting! They will be giving us(new recruits) an overview of the different departments and procedures. This will take all morning for the whole week, so it will mean I won’t finish work early since [...]

Today I had one of those days at work - when you can’t get out of work soon enough, when everything seems to be going wrong, when everyone seems to be soooo demanding and when the clock seems to have stopped! Was I glad to get out of that door and come back home?! Phewwww

Yes..you’ve read correctly..I’m still waiting for my stationery order at the office!!
The order for stationery (since the office is still being set up) was placed during the first week I started working there, which is over a month now. And I still haven’t had the order delivered!
It’s not the supplier’s fault, it’s just the bureaucratic [...]

I’ve been at work well over a month now, and I feel I’ve settled down. Still have to do more work to properly set up the office, including loads of filing still to be done (unfortunately!). Tomorrow two new people will join us at the Office. I hope we’ll get on well!
Next week I also [...]

Yesterday I started organising papers at the office. I spent all day yesterday, and today, sorting and filing papers. There’s so much paperwork to be done - months of papers piled up, which need sorting. I’ve already progressed a lot in 2 days at least. But it has really given me a headache - trying [...]

It’s already been a month since I started working! I can’t believe how time is going by so fast. I am finally settling down at work. It has proved to be a hectic job at times, and I’ve been very busy some days, having to stay at the office until late, instead of half day. [...]

So this week was my 2nd week at the new workplace..already! The week was spent getting to know more people, and settling down. On Wednesday, I packed everything in boxes and moved to the new office, since we were assigned a new office in a new building. Now that was a big headache! So many [...]

So today was my last day at work! I’m just back from meeting with my colleagues, as we met for farewell drinks, as another two people left recently so we met again. I’ve been there 2 1/2 months already! Sometimes seems like yesterday I was still starting work there. Back then I never thought [...]

…when everyone you know is on holiday/shutdown/leave and you have to go to work??!!
I just hate it and wish I was on holiday as well! The past years I was always working at this time of year, and this year, since I finished the finals I only had two days off. But now that I [...]

I’ve already been at work for two weeks. I’ve been so busy that I barely had time to use my laptop at home, which explains my lack of blogging.
Even though I’ve only been there for two weeks, I already realised how hectic it is to work in publishing and advertising, with deadlines which have to [...]
