They were a cheerful bunch and very helpful. I filled out more paperwork and watched a work safety video and signed a form saying I HAD watched the video. Then had a really nice interview with one of the young women there.

It went so well, and I was very surprised how comfortable I felt. Years ago I would have been a bundle of nerves and left the place completely drained. But I must have gotten over the really painful shyness part of my life, because I actually enjoyed it !

She wants me to meet her supervisor who won’t be in until Friday, so back I will go then to do that and to take some aptitude tests and a typing test. They told me I could bring my own keyboard in as I have been using a split keyboard for over 6 years or so, and a regular one has become almost unusable for me. She said just unplug it and haul it on over, that it happens all the time.

So I am feeling very positive about the whole thing. They have all kinds of part time and temporary work that I can ease into the whole working world with. One thing for sure, I don’t think it will be boring!

We shall see if any jobs actually materialize.

I will make this observation about this experience though.
