So it all started when we woke up. It was all running smoothly (first sign something was up). For some reason we had the time for me to put on make up before we left and actually left at 9:30 instead of 9:38 to walk Jameson to class. We get up to campus when my phone rings.
Colorado number? What ho!?
So I answer the phone and it is the people who did the background check on me asking why I wasn't at work, today was the day I was supposed to start... at 9... I didn't know! They said they had left a voicemail and an email... neither of which were received. Odd. They asked if I could be there in forty five minutes. SURE! Jameson was a doll and let me run off to get to work.
I made it home in an okay manner, realizing my hair was still up I settled for a clip, sweater and black pants cause I dont know the dress code. I jump into the rental car and hit the highway.
Luckily traffic was over and I got there 5 minutes early. phew. They were all really nice.. you can tell they had planned on me being there because the office room had a 'Welcome Becky' sign. And later when I met an Advertising rep, after she said hi, I heard her in the back say, "so the new girl ended up coming today..." ouch.
Half way through the new day today, after studying for test 1, my boss gives me the test schedual and because I start in the middle of the month, I start on test 7. On Enteral Feeding. Big words. Lots of information. sigh. Early on at work I get a call from a 801 number. Uh-Oh. Of course, the day I start my new job that goes until 5 and is about 30 minutes from home, our car is done in the shop... that closes at 5:30 and if we dont pick up our car AND return the rental by the time they close, we get charged money.
They let me go early to get the car! Jameson and I get to the car place 5 minutes before close... He goes to return the rental. I call him a few minutes later cause, well, I forgot the insurance check at home! sigh. Luckily they stayed open for us. Both did.
That is today in a nutshell. Feel slightly flustered from reading it? I feel slightly more flustered from typing it over haha. Today was great though. A whirlwind, but great. We ended it with a great dinner at Chilis (discounted due to my current remaining employment there) with Dave and Kristen.
Enjoy your days and remember to count the blessing of a relaxing day!
Love from the Rancks!

Wow. I need a nap. Thanks for that. I can tell you were a bit worked up about it because of the spelling and gramatical errors. As I get more and more worked up the number of errors in my writing increases. Sounds like you made it, just keep plugging away.

Whew! So glad that the job worked out though. Enteral feedings, huh? Interested to see what your company does with them...
ReplyDeleteHopefully tomorrow will be breezy. Cute that they had a sign ready for you! Sounds like a good place.
A sign for you? how cute is that?? it's better to start off on the wrong foot so that it can only get better... did i mention i changed my name to pollyanna today? yes it's offical, I'll start singing soon, wait I already burst into song!! On days like that just keep thinking, lets get our peckers ready, and you'll be smiling in no time!! Or imagine me telling my boys they don't get any more secs, thats a classic, or me being pulled over by 2 cops holding their weapons because they think I have a assault rifle in my car. good times sis
