My First Week

I entered this week with a bit of excitement and trepidation. I went for my first day of work on monday totally not knowing what to expect. But my fears were quickly laid to rest when I met my boss and the people who I will soon call my colleagues. I really thank God for guiding me to making the decision to take up this job offer and not be swept up by what the world defines as a "career." People were calling me crazy for rejecting a $1700 a month job for something $300 lower. Maybe I am.

I took to my new boss and colleagues very well. They were very nice to me and taught me the skills of the trade with the utmost patience. Later I found out that most of my colleagues including my boss who owns the company are christian. There is no feeling of stress, no pressure to learn quickly and perform, I don't come home from work all shagged out but still have energy to do other things like run, shop all play my computer games.

My greatest fear was that my job will become really monotonous really fast but so far that has not happened after one week. Perhaps because everything seems fresh and new to me so I pray that the freshness of the job stays. But still I thank God for guiding me to this job.
