My First Day of Work
Well my first day of work was fabulous!! It started with general safety training that was BORING, but to be expected. After lunch I got to go shoe shopping! No joking, my first day of work and I was shoe shopping. They took me to a mobile shoe-shopping place, complete with three different stores. I was a hit at the shoe store too. I walked through each of the stores looked at all the shoes available, tried a few on in each store and finally picked a pair that I can live with. The whole experience was therapeutic and wonderful even if I was shopping for safety shoes.
I did get a pair athletic shoes that do not look like safety shoes. I asked every last one of the salespeople for pink safety shoes. I think they thought me a little daft, but hey I have a thing for pink shoes! I might try to order a pair online. My new boss was with me the entire time, and I am not sure what he thought. I have already impressed him and not with my shoe selection powers either.
He left me alone this afternoon and I tracked down the supporting information I needed to complete my “First Project”. He did not give me all that I needed and I knew my administrative assistant would know where it was, so why bother him right? At the end of the day he came in a mentioned that he would get me the stuff and I informed I already had it. The look on his face was priceless; he even mentioned how glad he was that he hired me. I told him as long as he kept me busy I would be happy too.

Hey Ladies,
Thank you. I have been super busy and I love it. The shoe shopping was a huge bonus and if I find pink safety shoes I have been given the okay to get them too! Finally 10 years of schooling is starting to pay off!
