First day of... whatever


I start my training fully today, and the good news is it’s all on-site. Originally they had said they wanted to send me away, but because there isn’t a manager in situ at present they’ve decided the guy training me can be stand-in manager at the same time as training me up, then when I’m ready he can step aside and leave me in charge, thereby facilitating a smooth handover process. (And, of course, saving themselves some money at the same time. This company is nothing if not frugal)
I am neither nervous nor excited, and that’s very weird. I think I’m just so relieved to have made a change that I’m floating on a cloud of indifference while reality carries on somewhere far below me. As a result, today may turn out to be a rude awakening or a pleasant surprise, but I really don’t mind which.
