Trains and Sleepy Lunches

Jan 14, 2010 21:42

I'm still at the orientaton stage of my job and I'm trying to get a handle on the field and how the company works before taking on my tasks as a brand assistant. The excitement is still there although of course, I miss the lazy afternoon naps I could take at home. But then again, being unproductive doesn't suit me and brain activity is a must. I have to say though, I hate being the new girl. More often than not, as the new person, you feel out of place because of course, they all know each other and can relate to each other while you're still trying to grapple around not only your job but everybody else there. But people in my workplace have been extremely friendly. We're all the same archetypes. Happy, cheerful, friendly people that it's just so hard to feel out of place, which is fantastic. Of course, there are still moments where you feel you can't relate but that's to be expected.

This is a very fruitful learning experience actually. There's a lot to learn and it's a lot different than when I was in school. The consequences of failure are much bigger than angry parents. It involves lives that depend on such a big corporation for livelihood. And of course, the money. But honestly, I'm glad I'm given a chance to be a part of the corporation and meet the people here. I can feel the stress coming. It's like a slow build up but I really can't wait. I still have no idea what I'm really going to do but I can't wait. It'll be really stressful but I'm really excited. :]
