Monday was crazy day, I literally never had a minute. I woke up shortly before 9 to head into the hard rock for a 10:30am appointment to pick up my badge and get fitted for my uniform. I'm glad I scheduled it at 10:30 because when I got there I had more paperwork to fill out. I left the hardrock and headed to a noon meeting in albuquerque where I was the speaker. I finished sharing exactly on time, never once looking at the clock. It's way cool when that happens. I met someone there from hometown cali, who knew a bunch of people I knew and we talked for a bit. I headed over to a friend in the programs house to clean and cleaned for 4 hours before picking up my roommate at the train station for her home group. After the meeting we went out to dinner at this extremely cheap pizza place, where I had a salad, and decided we rather would have had Flying Star, which is delicious. Then we headed over to karaoke where she was meeting a boy, and I left without her when I was to exhausted to do anymore, besides having to be up early the next day for my first day orientation.
Tuesday I awoke late and arrived late for orientation, luckily I didn't have to reschedule. It was the fastest, least informative orientation I have ever had, and I felt rushed all day. And my evaluation didn't reflect it. Although are trainer was fun, they need to either have a smaller class or split it into 2 days. We really were at orientation all day and then I got to pick up my uniforms and find out my schedule for the week. My uniform came with only one shirt because they were out and had to order some. I still didn't get a swipe card for my department or any log in info, which I will get this Saturday. I came in exhausted but managed to stay up doing nothing for several hours before I crashed around 2am. I didn't have to work till 3pm the next day!
Wednesday I woke up around 11, with an hour 1/2 till my alarm went off and decided to turn over and go back to sleep. I lay in bed for 10 minutes listening to the great music and finally got out of bed. I was feeling very stiff and did 1/2 hour of pilates stretches. I made it out the door on time and made it to work exactly as one of my co-workers did so I got to walk in with her. I got no training, shadowing or anything, just logged in and shown where the departments numbers were and sink or swim. I struggled a bit but by the end of our first big rush of calls I had the hang of the phone system anyway. There's still a lot about the hotel and stuff that will just take time to learn. My shift ended at 11 and the drive home was clear, a perfect warm summer night and I drove home with the windows rolled down and enjoyed. Now I am making some dinner and going to bed for Tai Chi in the morning. I have tomorrow off, and I fully intend on cleaning some of the house.
