Holy Monday!!
Holy Monday!!


I started a new job last week. I am really enjoying it, everyone is very friendly and welcoming. But, for some reason, I am over-analyzing, making things much harder than they need to be.

So, this morning, I come into work, clock in, then head over to the main office which is housed in a different building. Along the wall outside there is a spigot that is located about hip high, that I had never noticed. I was just telling my co-worker, who is training me, that I didn't have the proper caffeine intake for the morning and will be requiring large amounts of coffee, when my hand inadvertantly hit the spigot.. turning the water on full blast, filling my right shoe entirely with water.

Oh, but that's not all. No that isn't the end to the malicious Monday blues.. We get inside and find that I have an interview to do, not a big deal. I brew a cup of coffee and settle in with the interviewee's paperwork. As I am talking to my cohort, I tip my coffee up for a drink, about an inch from my face.. effectively pouring the tepid brown liquid down my shirt. Shit!

I order lunch for the meeting of the Heads, drive fifteen minutes to pick it up, only to discover I have forgotten to have the checked signed. Head back to the office for signatures, back to the restaurant for food, forgetting to attain a receipt. That comes to me later in the day while I am filing paperwork. Nice. I drive back to the restaurant with my head hanging low. Returning to the office, I realize as I enter the building that I have left my car running, and my headlights on, mid-day.

I realize, probably a little too late, that I'm leaving a pretty poor impression.

At least I didn't burn the popcorn.
