meanmamma's new job

ok, so my first day at work went well.........as well as can be had on a first day, i suppose.......the entire morning was spent signing forms........a task delayed because the person in charge of said forms was delayed because a kitten had crawled up into her engine and she couldn't get it out..................an excuse for tardiness not be to mimicked, i was informed........... we get an hour for lunch......at which time i piously walked for 20 minutes at the public park down the road...............and still had time for a bite to eat............which i had to purchase because the lunch i brought got locked into the clinic area.....for which i did not yet have a key when the time came for lunch.......and i declined to search out someone with a key when i knew that i had money in the car, car keys in my pocket, and places nearby to go.................the afternoon was devoted to moving..............the stuff out of the larger office of the 2 offered to me........hey.....when offered a choice i chose wisely................i have worked with at least 2 of the nurses on staff before, both at the hospital in danville.........and both repeated those words one loves to hear......'we could not believe that you would come over here to work...................we feel so lucky to have you.'...........gentle readers................this job is as lowkey as they come...........my supervisor came by at 4:30, as i was attempting to sort through stuff i had moved from the smaller office.....to make sure i knew to go on and leave..............frankly, i do not recall ever having a job where they make you leave on time at the end of the day................i will try very hard to get used to this...............
