Ok, so I sent an email to request a book for review, and it wasn't that bad really. Except that I messed up. I was supposed to request one to come here and another to go to the office in North Carolina, but I forgot to ask for the one to go to North Carolina, so they're both going to be sent here. Arg. I can't beleive I did that...
There are two more books I need to request but they only want written requests... I don't know how to do those! I have some guidelines for emailed requests but none for mailed! So I don't know what I'm supposed to do. And I still have a thing about asking... and admitting that I messed up. I was supposed to request these things about a month ago, and I was going to ask then, but I forgot. And now, not only do I have to ask for help, but I have to admit that I messed up. It shouldn't be this hard. Seriously. It's not like they'll fire me because I messed up once, right? I'm new to this job, they'll understand. But... still.
Part of it is, I don't like to be an inconvinience to anyone, and I feel that if I ask for help while they're in the middle of doing something, I'll be getting in the way. I know that it's more of an inconvinience if I don't ask, but it doesn't feel that way. *sigh* I guess I'll have to ask sooner or later... Maybe I should email Amy and ask. That way she can respond whenever she had the time, and I wouldn't feel like I was getting in the way. I think I'll do that.
I'm so glad that I have this journal. It helps me to think things through slowly so that I have time to actually think about them. Yay. ^.^
