Job Update

My life definately needs to be more streamlined. I don't think things are going to go well as they are right now. I came home from work yesterday at around 6pm and slept until 4:30 this morning. Not much left in the way of getting things done.

I had hoped to do at least a few things this morning, a blog post, catch up on emails, check around at sites, clean the house a bit (still a mess from the carpet deal) and so on... I'm getting the blog post done at least.

I realized yesterday how absolutely little I know about fruits and veggies. I knew what an apple was, but past that I was pretty useless. "Are these hydro-incubated third world peanuts?" ... "what? ask that guy over there."

I'm already not fond of the job. I'm happy to be back doing something semi-physical, and my body kind of rebels against the whole moving around and picking things up, but hopefully it will catch on to the necessity and notice it's getting more food when I'm not just scraping by and go easy on me.

The thing I found remarkable was how many people there seem to remember me, and fondly it seems. I wasn't at a loss for people to hang around the entire day. Everyone was coming up to me, welcome back, good to see you, etc... The odd thing is that I never worked that shift. There are a few people I used to work with, but for the most part the ones being so nice to me now are those that I just worked with a couple hours a week because I was there so much.

I'm anxious to be out of the training period and back on nights though. I don't like getting up at 7am. I usually go to bed shortly after that.
