I have a job now

I wanted to make a post about how I was doing at my new job, and then I remembered that today at 5pm a guy from IT told us not to turn off our computers today because of an important update, and today at 6pm I left work and of course turned off my computer just like I always do. *facepalm* Great job, self. Have fun tomorrow morning.
Overall it's going well though. I think. It seems like every few days one of my bosses tells me of a silly mistake that I can't believe I made and reminds me not to do it again and it's very embarrassing. Fortunately triple redundancy is pretty much built into every step of the process, but still.
The people are nice though, I'm getting used to the hours, and I'm not bored yet. (I will eventually, but my contract only lasts until July anyway, and I'll start sending job applications again in May. Not looking forward to it.)

Date: 2017-04-27 08:50 pm (UTC)I'm glad that the job seems to be working out. Stupid mistakes are probably pretty common with newbies, so don't be too embarrassed.
(Job searching sucks, but keep in mind that, supposedly, being employed makes employers more likely to hire you. So hopefully, you won't be at it for long!)
