A Day at the Office
Wednesday, September 11, 2013 @10:16 AM


Work has been so hectic for the last few days. There's nothing like being buried in paperwork. Literally. With the amount of paper on my desk, the banker boxes full of paper, on my shelves, baskets (hanging and cabinets storage) ... it is a surprise that I have not received a papercut yet.

Then here comes Friday where I work like mad since I stepped into my office to only find myself bored with nothing to do for at least an hour before going home. I still have a lot of work to do in respect to my workload but most of remaining work can't be done until Monday. This is what sucks about having some vendors and such on the other side of the country. They are hours ahead so I can't make any phonecalls to ask questions of what I need because they have all gone home for the day. I wish I could just go home now but I don't want to get in trouble for just leaving. Just 40 more minutes at this point then I finally get to go home and relax a bit.

I do love my job though. I love doing something that is actually related to my education, which is accounting. To finally be able to say "I'm an accountant" to someone who asks "what do you do for work?" is a warm and fuzzy feeling. I'm still new to this position though. I still have a lot to go through, learn and experience. That is why I have been working hard over the past few weeks. I was kinda just thrown into this fire of a position and had to learn a lot of things myself so I had a lot of catching up to do. Like I said, there's still a lot of work to do but I'm getting there. I've started finally getting used to certain things, it's easier now to go with the flow with certain tasks but always, a curve ball gets thrown at me and I have to deal with it. It's part of the challenge though so I'm not complaining. All I can say is that it definitely keeps me busy. One good thing about being busy at work is how fast time flies by during the day. I get to work at 8:30AM and by the time I know it's already lunch time. After lunch, then it's easy breezy - time flies even faster. By the time I know it, OH! It's time to go home! Normally, I say, "Oh crap! It's almost time to go home, I'm still not done!" but today is a different story. I'm actually WAITING to go home.

I just need to spruce up my office a bit more. I want to put up some pictures of my own on the wall, put up my own decorations and messages here and there. Maybe I'll put up a couple of posters. I have 2 little mini card pictures of my fiance and I up on my desk and that's pretty much it. It's nice to have my OWN real OFFICE but I want it to actually feel like it's mine by making it more comfortable for me. One day, I'll go out and print out some big prints of my photography with a nice frame and put it up in my office. I'll get a couple of cute little frames to put up maybe a nice picture of my fiance and I and maybe my family. That would be nice.
