update on the new job...

so far I got a $115 ticket on day one. Today I put my car in a lot  for $17 and bought a bagel and juice $5- Ive worked in NYC for 2 days and I am going broke already!

So far its hard to tell what to make of it all. It is a step up, the building is new and clean and very hi-tech (its such a difference from never having paper or toilet paper or ink).  I couldnt even get the copier to print copies today.

I feel like an overpaid intern so far. I am going to be an asst to a sgt. My direct boss is nice but I have a feeling Im going to be feeling lost for awhile until I get the hang of things. I havent had anything to do since I have to be pass a security clearance so all Ive done is make copies! The pros are I get treated like an adult, I can network with tons of people and I got a cubicle with my own phone, computer and a new blackberry!

I still have to get used to the commute its only 12 miles longer than my old one but seems to take an hour longer!

  • Well it always takes sometime to adjust. It sounds like a much better situation. Good luck! Although the commute issue sucks!

  • I'm on month 2 of my new job. I can commiserate. It isn't always easy.  I still can't remember my long distance code or whether to dial 9 or 99 before faxing something.  Most people have been understanding and helpful. I just try not to be so hard on myself.

    I can't wait until I feel more comfortable!  Things will get easier for us.

  • Glad you like it so far. You'll get into the swing of things soon!
