First Day of Work

I woke up at 5:50 am to get ready for work. Took a shower, drank coffee, drank more coffee and was on my way. I left my house at 6:30 because i didn't know how long it would take to get down to harrisburg, but it seems like it takes an hour and 5 minutes although I'll be leaving an hour and 15 minutes just to be safe.

I drove down 522, to selinsgrove, to stop at the bank and get some money, and continued my journey down 11&15 eventually making the turn onto 322 with little traffic. From there I continued my journey although traffic was beginning to pick up. Constantly in the left lane i avoided the slower tractor trailers and grannies driving down the road and was able to navigate my way to 81 east toward carlile. I decided to take the 581 exit to camp hill instead of driving to mechanicsburg and discovered that i successfully cut 7 minutes off my trip time instead of driving all the way up carlile pike.

But from there i turned right, onto sporting hill drive, drove to the end and made a right. At the next intersection (light) i made a left, until i came to a street called simpson street and promptly made a right. The building i work at is probably 2 blocks down on the right where rite aid fss is located.

I was early obviously so i had to wait to get inside the building. There were 5 other individuals in my class so i took this time to chat with them and get to know the people. As for the actual work we did, it was mostly orientation things, company policies, procedures, training videos, and paper work. Although at the end of the day we got to listen in to the calls to see what we were going to be doing later on.

I was happier about going into this job because I'm actually getting trained, instead of like penteledata where they didn't show you anything (unless you did it wrong).

But It turns out I'll be in training for 3 weeks and then have an assessment on how my abilities are. From there, I'll be placed on the second shift 12-9 with an hour lunch (unpaid) and two breaks (15 min paid). Its actually required to take a break unlike ptd where you could fit one in if you had time.

I also found out that its going to be a lot easier, considering i won't have to work with 3rd party vendors and everything we have (equipment) some sort of documentation for. So I'll just say right now I'm excited but I'll have to elaborate more later on in the week when we do something more exciting then orientation stuff....

Peace kids..
