The first meeting

I had my first meeting today with the entire group. Entire group meaning, the people in my building plus those all over Canada. This was obviously done through a conference since not everyone can make it here in Toronto. It was 2 hours long but it went by pretty fast. It was odd though since everyone had to introduce everyone in the beginning. My supervisor’s boss was there as well and when we met for the first time, I was pretty intimidated. I believe he knows that people find him intimidating since I heard some people talking how they ran into him and they were pretty surprised that he travelled all the way from Calgary to here. I saw his face when he saw my sudoku puzzle drawn on my whiteboard. :embarass: Yeah it helps me kill time when it’s a slow day at work. Right so back to the meeting, the introductions was weird since I didnt know what to say. There were others who didnt introduce themselves since my boss had missed them. Sneaky people! :wink: I didnt really talk since I am new and my role isnt all the big that I had to talk. I didnt ask questions really. I just wanted to take in what happens during these monthly meetings and if/when I’m comfortable, I will ask questions.

So after work, I had to exchange the fish filter that I purchased last Monday. Then I wanted to stop by the store and buy some stuff for my desk. Unfortunately I didnt have my wallet. I panicked trying to remember where I put it. Thankfully, it was in my other jacket afterall. :bubble:

Ha so that’s my boring day….

Busy week.

I’ve been so damn busy this whole week with my full time job and this seasonal job for the Jays. I’m exhausted every night and I’m still not used to this waking up to 7 am routine.. I dont know how long it will take me to get used to it but I am still getting drives from my mom every morning (weekdays) since I cant wake up early enough to take the bus.

So tomorrow I have a day off from the Jays then on Friday I have a day off from my full time job. If only they were on the same day, I would be a happy camper but a day off is a day off. I shouldnt complain. :wink: So Friday, I get to see some of my buddies from Ryehigh. I havent seen them since the last day of school back in April. So that should be interesting. Tomorrow I am off to exchange the cellphone that I purchased and I wanna get a new one where I can actually hear the other person on the other line. With this phone I was constantly going, ‘I cant hear you!!!’ lol. :rude: Right so I will pay extra just to get a phone that suits me..

Tomorrow that is…
