Its finally begun.
Today I had my first day of real work post uni. Nothing much to say really because I didn't do a great deal and there's a certain amount I cant disclose because of the line of work I am doing.
For those of you unaware, I'm working in residential house for adult ex-offenders. My first week or two will mainly be reading up on policies and procedures so I know what do to in every circumstance.
The work is shift work involving one over night sleep a week. I've also realised this will be the first year of my life that I wont be home with my family for Christmas, which is a real shame for them... and I guess for me as well. Seriously though, I'm gutted. Gotta work a night shift on Christmas eve, then I get off Christmas day at 8am and am a free man till 1pm on Boxing Day when my next shift starts.
Still, I don't wanna complain. Having a job is great, the money is much needed, and the skills and experience will be invaluable for later in life. So I'm still giving thanks to God that I got this job so quickly (relatively speaking in this current economic climate).
