Starting work
Today was my first day at the new job. Well, I'm totally not doing my real job yet. It was induction. It was a lot like the induction/training/propaganda/brainwashing that I had at my last job. In fact, they even use the exact same online training software. Today I got to hear about the structure of the organization (yawn) and confidentiality (which I've heard at least 3 times before) and good patient care (which doesn't apply to me so much since I work with paper). I also did online training courses on fire safety and how to lift heavy things. I get more fire safety tomorrow, and more lifting of heavy things on wednesday.
At least this induction is only 2 1/2 days, and not 6 weeks like at my last job. And there was free coffee and cookies which was nice. Plus, meeting people is easy because I'm American so that's always a good conversation starter.
