What else what else. On Monday, nothing special. On Tuesday, shopping with J! I needed straight black pants for work and after all I found two of them and also new jeans.. And I was supposed to save some money...... I have to work my ass off so that I can compensate at least some of my shoppings.
Today was my first day at work after half a year. I got a job offer on Monday and I accepted it, it covers at least next two weeks, and if everything goes well and everyone is happy, I may continue working there also after that. This kind of long-term working period in a same place wasn't what I supposed when I applied for a job in a "labor renting company" because they usually offer just some individual shifts in different places (=their customer companies to whom they "deliver workers") when extra labor is needed. But better for me, of course I prefer this situation! Today and Saturday are my training days so that I would learn all the basic things I need to know; next week I'm gonna work 5 days; the week after that I will have 6 working days... That's a lot! But I liked the place, it's a cafeteria in a shopping center and I'm working there as a cafeteria waitress. There are many products offered; different coffees, teas, cold drinks, smoothies, alcohol products, sandwiches, paninis, foccaccias, pies, salads, cakes, croissants + other bakery goods, ice creams, ... I don't even know the whole selection yet. The distance from my home is not too bad and the other workers seemed nice. So I got a positive impression, but this was just the first day.
The negative thing is that I'm not in a good condition and the job is quite physical as I have to stand all the time and carry quite heavy trays of dishes, so my back hurts now! I also had to wake up at 5.30 this morning (I didn't sleep much because I kept on waking up as I was stressed whether I wake up on time or not) so I was quite exhausted after the shift. But now I can relax these two days before my next shifts. And I can't complain, I got a job very quickly (wouldn't have believed) and the field is just what I was hoping for. And somehow I like working again! Just a few days before I got this job offer I asked J what I'm gonna do these two months before I start studying again - and now I have my answer. Of course I want to relax too and enjoy the summer, and that's why I hope the weeks after the next two weeks won't be this full. I also want to have some free time. For example, we bought tickets to Oulu with J yesterday (we are going there at the beginning of August) so at least then I'm gonna be off from work for 5 days. And we also have a few other plans, in addition to the fact that I still want to go to the countryside!
And btw, yesterday I started to write about my apartment that I got back last Friday. I've got almost everything now organized here and I also took a few pictures. But when I started writing I realized that I can't get the pictures to my computer because the camera-computer cable is at J's. So I will write about it later then, with pictures.
But now I'm exhausted (it's 1.40am, why am I still here?!). Tomorrow's weather is supposed to be beautiful so we try to make up something nice to do with J. We have to enjoy these (rare) sunny&warm days as we finally have at least a few of them here in Finland. So, good night, enjoy your summer days!
