i survived my first week at work

I have just finished my first week at work.

it has had its ups and downs but has defiantly got better as the week goes on.

the people are nice - i share an office with 3 lads and then there is 2 other rooms - one with the rest of the staff i manage (all girls - 4 of them) and the other with admin in.

The office is in an old Victorian semi- detatched house and the Money advice Unit is on the top floor,

There are not many similarities to paperwork and files and some practices are really tedious and i want to change some things already.

the work load seems a large as it was in winsford even though they said it was less but they have a lots more admin support so i think it will be better in the long run once i get my head around things.

my first job this week has been to check (sign off) every file they have closed since august. - 13 boxes - i've done 4!!! I'm hoping this is one of the rules i can change!

my day off is Friday and i'm glad its friday tomorrow.

but one thing is defiantly better - i'm not managed by my old boss and my new one seems to like some of my ideas and think i am ok (so far!)
