Hey, so if you read my other thread, you'll know that I started a new job on Monday. If you're curious about how it's going, continue reading.
This place is so disorganized. Everyone just goes about working while I just stand there not knowing what to do with myself. I usually have to figure out how to make myself useful in anyway I can. I don't have someone actually training me. Sure, someone shows me some stuff here and there, but I haven't had a clear account of all my duties.
A big amount of my co-workers primarily speak Spanish and can't speak much English. I have been told to go with a Spanish speaking person and am left feeling frazzled when they're trying to tell me something that I don't understand so I have to stand there and say, "I don't understand", and make a face that indicates that I'm not clear on what they're trying to communicate.
On the first day I was immediately put into the role of first server on the second line. It was an extremely busy day, over 600 hundred people came for lunch.
I am so exhausted and sore that sitting is a major relief, even while biking home.
Oh, and guess what? After my first, long day of work, my bag was locked in the office, which had my house keys. They told me I could keep my stuff in there, and then they go and lock it after they leave work, leaving me in a horrible situation. My eyes hurt from my contacts and desperately needed to take them out but couldn't because my bag was locked away which meant I had no way to take them out. I had to work the next day. What a disaster, huh? I just wanted to go home. I wanted to sleep early. I wanted to be able to relax and then get ready in the morning. There was no way I could have slept in my contacts when they were already dry. I didn't want to have to go to work all bedraggled either.
(Said in a Totally Kyle Voice) Uhm, one time I was like tired and instead of being able to you know, go home and relax, I like, was locked out of my apartment for the night. And I was all, "wow, bummer. I have to like work tomorrow."
One of my friends let me stay in their dorm and they had contact solution and a makeshift contact case. I woke up at 6:10 in the morning to walk to my work to get my bag so I could be able to get ready at home. Well, on my walk I got lost because I'm not completely familiar with the area. My grandma picked me up and took me to my work and yeah, the door was still locked, so we waited a half hour and finally the office door was open. I'm so grateful for my grandma. She's awesome.
I have tomorrow off.
