It's been a week since I started my new job. I'm really convinced it will be much better once everything is up and running... but right now it's not so good. I was asked to do a certain task while my boss goes on vacation. I am clueless on how to perform the task. She didn't train me at all for this, and I don't have a background in this field, so I just did what I could. I accepted the job with the thought of learning something new from the employer, not having to learn on my own...
I should really have brought this up yesterday when we had met. But I think I was afraid she would just tell me to Google it... because I really feel she doesn't know how to perform that task as well, and thinks I know how to do it.
Blah.
I went to my interview today. Felt not so great, stomach ache, and then I developed a headache after the interview. I think the beginning of the interview went swell, but maybe it was just okay towards the end of the interview. I wrote my thank you letters and sent them off. I will hear from them next week. Hopefully I'll get the job!
If I get the job, I'm not so sure how I will tell my employer, she's under the impression I can work 7 days a week, with varying hours... if I do that, there's not a lot of room to do other things. I feel so restricted.
I only accepted it because I had thought it would be good experience... also I don't want people to ask me why if I didn't accept, and I didn't want to be jobless.
I also have a lot of volunteer commitments too... I really need to talk to her about this. She seemed a bit confused when I had said I may not be available on the weekends, unless notified in advance. We'll be talking about it when she gets back.
To be honest, I don't see this position being FT. And why am I stuck doing administrative work??? Sigh.
I still have a headache...
