I am sitting at work, waiting for something to happen.. not sure what, but something. I don't think I have updated this thing since Mitch's funeral but I guess I will take a shot at it.
So 4 weeks ago I made the change from my crappy job at Natural resources which would have been over shortly.. to this job at the department of public safety. I am working the reception desk, directing traffic and answering phones. By directing traffic, I am referring to the people who come in looking for someone. Public safety contains the motor vehicle branch and mainly the compliance and regulatory services branch, the first one has to do with infractions and other motor vehicle related things.. the second one is liquer liscenses and raffles and the like. Also the department looks after the correctional centers in the province.
So anyways.. most of the time there is nothing going on here.. every now and again we hit a busy spot but usually it is pretty slow.. I watched a half an hour episode on octopus before lunch on the internet. Occasionally I do odds and ends for Human resources and finance or Compliance.. but really I spend a lot of time sitting around waiting for something to do. I sort the mail in the mornings and sort and distribute the paystubs for the entire department.. but thats about it.
Also on the news front, Alyssa and myself have found an apartment, we are looking to move in together at the end of this month. We are going to buy a couch on friday and I will finally get a working internet connection.
