First week in my new position at work and things have been pretty interesting. A lot of learning for me to do, I basically have to understand every aspect of the computer system, and it really doesn't help that it's a still a work in progress. My brain is hurting from all the information I've had to digest. I think I'm getting it though. I do need to work on my typing. The single finger method is not going to cut it anymore. If anyone can recommend a good program that teaches how to type I would really appreciate it.
I do need to sit down with Bob and Jeff (my two immediate bosses) and get some stuff straightend out about what exactly the priority of each task I have to do daily. Right now they keep giving me conflicting information, almost like they want everything done at once (which is silly), and unless we come to some sort of agreement I can see a lot of headaches for me. I've got my own ideas on this and am going to present them to the two of them tomorrow.
Another problem that has arisen is that I can not help pick orders anymore. I went in yesterday to lend a hand finishing off orders thathad been left from Friday and I ran straight ingto a conflict. My new job requires me to search and discover why an item on an order is missing. When I did this yesterday though Wayne, my old supervisor, told me not to waste time and hurry up and finish picking the orders so he could leave. I don't tink think he quite understands that by doing what he wanted I'm set myself up to get in shit tomorrow for not doing what I'm now paid to do. I'm going to have to play stupid to cover my ass this time and decline to help in the future. I've got enough work of my own anyways.
Had my date with Nicole on Friday night . We went to the Conservatory where I have piano lessons and watched peformances by the senior students of Mozar'ts Concertos. I figured since my previous round of going on dates with her involved watching horror movies, which she really isn't a big fan of, I'd try something different. Was a bit weird though when we ran into my piano teacher. Turns out Nicole knew him and had shot him down when he'd asked her for a date. Very small city I live in.
One more thing....Nicole had shaved her hair to raise money for Cancer research. The fact she would do that makes me like even more.
Hope everyone is doing good

Y'know, arguing with Uptight is just pointless. You might as well yell at a wall, for all the good it does.
