A job....sorta

Well, friends and commiserators, I have a job! Well, sorta. I began a temporary job last Monday with the State Attorney General's office. I'm working through a temp agency, so am making next to nothing, but next to nothing is so much better than nothing! As last week was a holiday week, I only worked 2-1/2 days, so don't have a really clear picture of the job yet. I spent my first day with training videos and quizzes. The next day and the half day on Wednesday was spent putting a large mailing together, so was pretty comfortable with that. I guess as I get more involved I'll be learning more. So far I like the people who work there and it's a long term temp job with an extension option; there's a small chance it will become a permanent position as well. Although I realize how long I've been out of the work force, it still came as a bit of surprise that every day when I got home I was totally exhausted. It's going to take some time to get back in the swing of things apparently. I know I don't sound overly excited, but this is a temporary position, with an agency that's messed me over before. I AM excited, and hope it works out really well. Just keep your fingers crossed!

I hope everyone had a wonderful Thanksgiving. I'm still eating turkey leftovers, which is okay with me. It was a nice, peaceful day and I hope everyone else enjoyed the same.

I'll keep you updated on the new job... ☺
