First day of work

[yrmencyn]

Y'all.  I have a newfound respect for Medical Records staff.  I did filebacks for 6 hours (maybe?) today (minus a half-hour lunch), plus getting oriented and all that, and it kicked my ass, hard.  My knees are the part that hurts most, from bending and crouching constantly.  It got better after I started just straight sitting, instead of kneeling.  Then when I got home from work I kinda fell asleep for an hour or so.  Course, that could have had to do with Kregg (again) awakening me at 5am by coming home, loudly, with some girl and then fucking her, loudly -- not to put too fine a point on it.  And honestly, 5am is the absolute worst time to wake somebody up, especially when that person has a hard time falling asleep: the sun is starting to rise, the birds consequently get all chatty, the traffic on Highland increases... it's just bad.  Kregg and I need to have a talk, by which I mean I need to bitch him out and he needs to stop acting like an asshole, and that rapidly.

So anyway, the first day of work was tiring, but pretty good.  It feels like working at the library again, albeit with a much simpler classification system.  Also, did you realize this is my first "real" job?  Yep.  Everything else is somehow related to student work, or is summer camp work.  Ah, academe.

And now my cooking bows to working.  I made chicken salad tonight (oh blessed rotisserie chicken magic), for the express purpose of being able to make chicken salad sandwiches.  It's delicious, go me.  I'ma go eat one of them now.  Wow, I'm really exciting today, huh.

Physical jobs always get less ouchy after a few days. Hang in there. Not with the roommate though. Now you're getting a taste of what it was like my freshman year with that former roommate you know!

I can only hope you get to help out in a pod. That's when the real fun begins.
"I need this STAT! And this! And this! The doctor needs this! Did you get this typed? I need this processed! GIVE ME YOUR SOUL AND BOW DOWN THE THE MEDICAL GOD."

Okay so I'm exaggerating...a little.

Kregg and the people that live below me should go live together somewhere..say..Antartica... and leave the rest of the world to our peace and quiet.
