Work stuff

[hils]

I had my first night shift last night and I have to say it wasn't as painful as I was expecting. Found myself flagging at about 4am but apparently everyone goes through that. My shift partner is very quiet but always willing to help if I get stuck, and we're allowed to have the TV on at night so we spent the evening watching silly things like Scrubs and QI.

I also had oddlyfamiliar and hsapiens talking to me on MSN which helped a lot and Misha tweeted which was a definite bonus.

Not looking forward to tonight so much. My usual shift partner is off and I'm working with the grumpy guy who was training me on Friday. Turns out the reason he's so grumpy is that he has a bit of a booze problem. Apparently he's been in trouble a few times for turning up to work drunk :-s

Bless my shift buddies though. After explaining this to me they both gave me their mobile numbers this morning and said if I have any problems with him to just give them a call and they'll sort it out for me.

The guy I'm doing shifts with in January also told me he's already heard glowing things about my work and seemed surprised I was only on a 2 month contract. He said judging by what he's heard he'll be very surprised if they don't make me permanent \o/

Right, I need to go and finish getting ready. Those of you on Twitter I'll twit you later. The rest of you I'll see when I get home
