Stephen & Elisabeth in England

First Day is Over!

SOOOoooo....

I got home to find I'd been set up for 2 interviews which I've now had to cancel. But I feel confident I've made a good choice of employment.

My supervisor, Andy, met me at 9am and then we had tea and chatted in the canteen for about 1/2 hour. Tea is free! Coffee is not... I was introduced to the team, my desk, and the layout of the office, labratory & warehouse. I tried really hard to remember everyone's name, and tomorrow will be the real test.

I was introduced to the products: cleaners, protectors, flushing systems, leak repairs, water conditioner, limescale removers, solder, fluxes, jointing tapes, etc... all for plumbers to buy at merchant shops, so no individual sales. Therefore, everything is very methodical, and I started to put some orders onto their system.

Everyone was very friendly, so I was put well at ease. The lovely thing is that its a quiet atmosphere, and people generally start leaving around 4:30, so that after 5pm, there were only a few people left in the office. Yay!

A short walk home, and I had time for a run, cancelled interviews, reheated dinner stephen had premade, and am now searching websites for office clothing inspiration.

All in all, it doesn't seem real!
