First Day at Work (sort of)

14th July
Today I had a training session to learn a bit about what my job would entail. Basically I'm asking people for money. There were only two of us being 'trained' today, myself and a girl called Lauren. Alexis, who up until today was the only person I knew related to the company, led the 4 hour session (it would have been quicker but his phone kept ringing and interrupting us). I would also like to point out that I didn't have nearly enough sleep as those $10 pitchers were really moreish (is that how you spell 'moreish'?) and I was with good company, it would have been rude to leave early so I did something I hadn't done for a few years and stayed out until the early hours! (I also danced at some point, but it was to Public Enemy... I think? There are photos somewhere but I haven't got them. I expect to be blackmailed one day with them.)

So my first proper night out was good, I even met a guy from a band called 'Bones Atlas' who was impressed with my musical tastes, but then I think all Australians like Airbourne and AC/DC.


So now I'm sponging off of the free internet at the State Library, which is nice. I start work on Monday and... Well that's about it. Stay classy Planet Earth!





PS. I just Googled 'Bones Atlas' and found a few videos. Remember, you saw them here first!
