Good first day at work....

It's so good to be working full time again at a job with a company I know I'm going to grow to love and respect.

My first day went well...I have a lot to learn and remember but it will come. Everyone was very nice and helped me so much. I'm working with a majority of women which is so different than working in the male dominated industry I just came from.

In orientation they impressed on me that I have to take my 3 weeks of vacation this year before the end of the year or I will lose it. If I don't use my 5 days of sick time I will get them paid back to me in full next January! Wow!!

I'm a happy camper!!!!!

Hello Ms. Blu,
I hope you're already tucked into bed after your big first day on the job.

We only got 6" of the predicted 10" of snow. The roads were clear and my 2.5 mile commute was a breeze! LOL Love it!!!

My Supervisors are all women Pam and all very nice. I've had one horrible female boss at my old job and 2 wonderful ones. Two of the Supervisors stopped by my desk today to see how I was doing and how I was feeling about things and reassured me that I'm not expected to learn everything in a week...they know that. There are probably 30 Customer Service Reps in our Dept. and they are all women except for one man!! They are all ages too...but not a lot of super young women.
