Title: Good luck Tunnie
Post by: TheBoy on 04 July 2007, 19:21:32
On your first day in your first proper job :y


Has your mum bought you a new uniform and new satchal, and packed your packed lunch?  Don't let the other kids beat you up and steal your dinner money ;D

I went in a full suit to both interviews, dispite being told is was casual. My thinking is this is the first time they will meet me, want to make the best impression.

I did stand out like a sore thumb, most where in jeans and t-shirt!

Will be 2, my radio alarm, and my mobile phone.

I think Radio1 set quite high should get me out!

Don't want to be late on my first day, so plan is, up at 5:45, out of the house by 6:45... get to the station for 7:05 ish.

Already got my train ticket and parking, so that will save time.

After i get the routine going, a usual alarm time should be 6:00 ish  :o

You'll be so anxious I bet you don't sleep past 5.30.  Set your alarms 10 mins apart, then if you hit the snooze too many time the next one might jolt you into getting up.  It's like Christmas for one  :)

or a sky hook, or a hammerfor, or any of the rude ones I won't repeat here (the ones that get a slap from the girls in the office)

Lol.....I remember at Alstom sending somebody to stores for a long weight......he went to the stores, knocked on the window and after about 5 mins this guy stuck his head out, looked at the rec form and said....'wrong window'

So, he went to the other window and knocked again, after 20 mins the same person appeared.....he stamped his rec, handed it back and wrote 'order fulfilled' on the rec and sent him on his way....

It took him another hour to work it out..........

"what colour do you want the vertical and horizontal stipes on your tartan paint, you best go and check i can only mix it once!" ;D etc.....

I'm guessing Supermop is Z1, makes it much cheaper...
