What A Week It’s Been…

I have transitioned to a new “consultant” position at work. I received less than three hours of training for a job that normally has weeks of training; this made me nervous about going in to work this past Monday. One week through and I must say that it isn’t half bad. Sure I do not get to read or write blogs as much as I had been, but at least I never left work crying or angry, which is a great thing.

In fact, I was given lots of praise from all the people who called in, and even words of “I love you Beehive.”

I kid you not, and this was all just from my picking up the phone and answering their questions, which, I’m told hadn’t been happening.

Go me.

On Friday, I was informed that I was to move into a different cube, which I did, leaving Brender behind. No longer can I see out a window from my cube, no longer will I be away from the hussle and bussle of the normal workers. I didn’t mind, until I realized what cube I was going to.

It was the cube of the now former coworker who had awful awful breath. I never cleaned a cube before I used it in the past, ever!

This one was scrubbed for over an hour before I felt comfortable enough to sit in it.

I sanitized all possible surfaces that I could possibly touch, which included the insides all the drawers and overheads. I swapped out the phone, chairs, and coat hooks.

During this clean up I found these items in the cube:

1) Oreo cookie crumbs.

2) A bumper sticker that commemorates the 10th anniversary of the Million Man March.

3) An unused maxi pad.

I threw the Oreo crumbs and maxi pad out; the bumper sticker was way too cool to not hang up in my cube – sanitized first!

Off to an engagement party.

Laters!
