Contemplating My Role at ST & Details Details Details
I am finding it interesting to be working in a group that is primarily female again. It is much different than the primarily male companionship that I had at the Alaska Way Viaduct and I find myself trying to find ways to fit in. The group is far more focused on what I am wearing to work, the little details that show I am conforming like what kind of jewelry I wear or how my hair is done. I have chosen not to wear much that is telling in the way of accessories and keep the hair plain.
It makes me feel like when I was in grade school. I am incredibly self conscious again and awkward. I want to be myself but don't want to stand out too much or seem "weird" because i can't afford to be an outsider. I need this job for survival. In general I am finding that this is working. The people are very conservative but nice. I think I can make it work. The location of work is right across the street from the station where the train arrives so that part is nice. I just hope I get to take the train. Rich's job is in Bellevue so a commute needs to be established. He doesn't know his hours yet. We shall see how it all plays out.
In general I feel better. I had a bad flair up on Sunday morning but it passed fairly quickly and I was able to work on my sitting room. It was nice to see the floor. LOL
Tonight is a class with a friend on Sparkling wine at the college near where we live now. I am looking forward to it.
Now back to the wonders of ST doc control and filing **rolling eyes**
