First Day in New Workplace

15 Apr finally arrived.

Instead of familisation and doubling up duties, my colleagues and I attended a 3 days training course on a new instrument/equipment my office has recently bought.

The 1.5 hour of train journey was quite a lot for me to bear but I think I have to get used to it asap. I noticed most of the commuters sleep, read newspapers or fiddling with their mobile phones. If I can get a seat in the train, I plan to either read a book or take a short nap.

My new boss P has briefly touched on my duties. She was not very happy that I wanted to apply some days of leave after my training course. In the end, I managed to get a couple of days off after the training course.

My duties in this office will be quite different from the previous. I will be taking up a role of providing consultancy services to customers. Depending on users' requirement, I have to plan and design a package of materials or info to cater to the specific users.

It will be a new challenge for me.

Maybe today marks the start of another part of my working journey.
