Overall it was good - everybody was really friendly and the team seem really nice. It was one of those 'first days' though, where as I don't yet have a contract, I also have no swipe card, no email address or computer access. So I had to be escorted through all the doors, which means interrupting colleagues, and that I mostly did filing! It's really frustrating not to be able to get stuck in straight away, but it was good to see how the paperwork goes, and learn some of the forms that I'll be using.
Tomorrow I go to the imaging centre and learn how to do things there! Including a safety lecture...I bet that will be thrilling ;o) It also means that I now have three phones! My iPhone and 2 for work, which are of course, ancient. They do share a charger though.
But wooooop(!) for the first step of my new career in research :) Still haven't written that bloody personal statement. Bugger it.
I see, so you totally change the layout and format of the blog but without actually updating it!
ReplyDeleteI hope you've at least got your statement done now!
