Where am I?

Yup, it’s been a while since I last posted. If my time isn’t sucked up by work, it’s disappearing into the midst of assignment work.

Work is going well, I started my 4th day in store today, selling another 7 phones and bringing me up to a total of 21, which I think is pretty reasonable for a new employee. Learning all the different processes has been a bit of a task – Each phone needing to be connected up in different ways. As well as that, there’s learning all the best features of the 20-30 or so phones that are being sold on PAYG – This being a lot harder.

All in all though, things are progressing nicely and I’m picking up things quite quickly, having to ask the odd question or so every now and again to keep me on track. I think the hardest thing is working out the several hundred different ways of opening a phone, slotting in the SIM card and memory card, if there is one. Each phone manufacturer does it differently, and even after that, each phone often has a different way too.

Uni’s going well too – nearing the end of term soon (14th Wooh!). This means I’ll have a bit more time on my hands, but today I quite oddly and too freely offered it to my employers, saying that I would be able to do some more hours if they needed, which they undoubtedly will nearing the Christmas period.

I have my second interview for Web Host Directory on Wednesday. I have been requested to come in with a portfolio of my work to show them what I can do. Hopefully I will be able to Wow them with my web-based handiwork. I’m looking forward to it somewhat, as I don’t usually get to show off what I do in that field.

Apart from that, I don’t have much to report. What I am up to at the moment is a mix of work, uni, assignments, some gaming (really don’t have time for it :( ), repeat :)

I’m looking forward to Christmas, it’s getting close already. I’m mostly prepared for it, but there will always be something to catch you by surprise – like a random silly postal strike D: I’m also looking forward to Christmas Eve as that means I will get some holiday, before having to be back at work, attempting to earn what I’ve spent over Christmas (he he). Don’t worry parents, I’m watching my spending ;)
