…a brief glance…

I can’t believe I’m saying it, but it’s soooo good to be working again. I have to say that having to actually remind myself that I have to be somewhere half way through the day was a bit of a rude shock to the system, but I got over it quickly.

Monday evening I was reunited with my Trainee Buddies. Which was a nice reunion. We were all pretty much happy to see each other. The work is monotonous, as Call Centre stuff seems to be, but the atmosphere is great. We tend to sit near each other for entertainment purposes.

At first it was a little worrying, not being able to make sales, but as of Wednesday night I broke that drought, and it’s been good so far. Really what makes the place is the people, and it helps that no one has a chip on their shoulder, and no one walks around acting holier than though. Our Campaign Manager, Stewart is this little hobbit like guy who’s very friendly and enthusiastic. He’s like four foot something. It probably wasn’t a good idea calling him a Leprachaun on my first day, but he hasn’t made me pay for it yet. Although he has threatened me that I have to go to the Pub treks after work because failure to do so, is a sackable offense.

Throughout the night everyone is very supportive, and enthusiastic. When a sale is made slap of hands and silent cheers with arms waving is usually exchanged. It’s an AWESOME envrionment to be at. It makes going to work in the evenings and weekends a bearable thought.

Today it was just me with the boys (that I trained with) because Jo had the day off. So I was stuck with Rabbi pulling my chair, tapping me on the shoulder, making fun and being disruptive for 7 hours. The boy is lucky he lived. While on the phone Michael, Rabbi and I were passing notes and playing hang man. It certainly made the time go quicker. Having those two around is a lot of fun. Rabbi in his annoying ways, and Michael and I just bonded for life during our second day of training. We sort of have the same track mind at certain things. I also catch the tube home with those two. They usually wait around for me, which is nice. Rabbi and I leave Michael on the train at Kings Cross, and we go our separate ways on the platforms. Not before exchanging the secret handshake. LOL!

Last Sunday I spent the day with Paloma. It was so nice to see her again. We had lunch at TGI Fridays @ Leicester Square before going to Saatchi Gallery. Tomorrow we’re supposed to have plans again because she’s leaving for Paris in the next few days. Saatchi was great, but I’m looking forward to checking out Dali Universe which is just beside it. Might do that this week before work.

On Tuesday night I went to Discovery and met some more great people. I met a couple of girls who were American and they were extremely nice and we got along great. So I may see them tomorrow night too. If not definitely on Tuesday night.

I guess aside from looking for a permanent place to stay, I am definitely settled. But one thing at a time.

I hope all is well with everyone. I miss you all very much, and can’t wait to see you in November.

Take care and Love Lots… Kie!!! Muwahhhhhhh!!!
