Journal (2009.03.06)
I believe that the other thing I was going to mention in the last post was the fact that I got in trouble at the end of a shift. We were short of the number of papers we needed, and I saw some that I assumed hadn't been noticed. I couldn't tell anyone about them or ask whether I should take them, so I just risked taking them and turning them in. It turned out that I wasn't supposed to take them yet. I remembered this because in last night's shift, they were forgotten, and I was asked to get them when a worker remembered. (That still doesn't justify my mistake, really. That would only happen if the other workers had never thought of it.)
Speaking of things I forget, I probably also shouldn't try to list all the songs stuck in my head throughout typing an entire post. The one at the end (when I'm filling in that field) can be complicated enough to identify.
In other news, I was again not told whether or not I have to do a job noted here until after I'm supposed to start it. However, this time it was complicated enough that one of the other workers (from another department, no less) was willing to talk to me about how we thought we should do it. Sadly, I couldn't return the favor in full, but at least I answered his questions and suggestions. Later, when the operator asked me to do more of the same but then realized it wouldn't work out, he explained (a very rare thing for him) why he had to correct himself.
I also got the final number of hours including the week with the error mentioned here. I had kept a note of the number of hours, but I stupidly failed to remember whether I had written down the correct number or the one that was listed on the sheet. Still, judging by the number of shifts I worked, it looks like it was corrected.
