There is no such thing as honeymoon period for my new workplace; probably just the first day. I practically OT everyday! 'Overwhelmed' describes the entire last week. A lot of new things to learn, esp the operations which I have to do daily, trying to understand the systems involved and how the reports are linked to the data inputs. And I'm a bit stressed over the fact that next week will be my one-man show as my colleague has to go on a business trip. *sweat*. Everyone wants to teach me everything within a very short time, but at the same time, I found it so difficult to ask them questions and clarify my doubts as they always seem so bz. Sian.
A lot of other things going on as well. Have to pick up VBA, as well as to revise my textbooks on the relevant concepts. My boss is also nice to give me a short lecture everyday when we both have the time. Lunch is with my boss, as she brought me ard to the cheap and good places to eat. A very nice lady, and seems very motherly.
Can see the huge difference between govt and private sectors, deadline for work in a bank can be as short as within minutes, while those of govt jobs can stretch to months just on a single paper. So far...I think I can adapt. Look forward to the time when I master everything and not burn out my weekends on reading up textbooks, but the chance looks dim, as I will be understudying another team in a few months time. LAAAAAAAAAAAAA~~!!
