Wednesday; My first day of work. A day of working together with a second girl (anabel) which also had a first day. We had our 'leader' with us; rasmus. (yes as in the band) We walked a complete day with him to learn how to handle some situations. After some encouriging word we had a few try's with him next to us. So if we would fail he still would back us up. At the end he gave us a few houses by ourself to try out. I did one contract all by myself without making a mistake in my story. So I was pretty proud at myself when I went home after a long day.
The second workday went a lot less plesant. It was for a beginning boiling hot outside. And because of the load of beginners Rasmus had to take he gave me and a few other 'second days' back up each other. With the upertunity to have a few of your own houses if you dared. It seemed all fairly easy to me. So I took of by myself. After one street of houses I broke down. I couldn't do this. I feld horrible. But because I refused to give up so easy and because I also felt a bit ill. I sat the day out and talked to Rasmus who gave me friday off. So I could recover till next week.
Fridaymorning Jeroen woke me up really early. Because he came home and didn't have any keys. He had an idea where his pasport should be so he called a few times to several departments of the airport. And then he found out that his pasport was sent to the Dutch ambassy. Where he had to be anyway that day. So he took off to get his passport. The rest of the day he spend sleeping. I went through the day relaxed with a lot of reading. In the evening I cooked and packed a box which Jeroen would take with him home so I didn't need to drag that along on the end.
On saturdaymorning Jeroen woke me up early again. This time to say goodbye. (after that I went to bed again ;-) Saturday i spend reading againg. (it was a really good book!)
Sunday was a complete diffrent story. The appartment was a 'bit' messy. So I spended the entire day doing laundry, dishes, bringing away garbage etc. (in a relax way...not to much of a hurry) At night I watched the final of Australian Idol. (Shame on me for following it) And had a long chat with Murf and Sabine. And went to bed early because I had to go to work tomorrow.
Monday (today); Rasmus already called me yesterday that I had to start an hour earlier. So got up early did my stuff and got to work. I already decided that that day would end in my decision to stay or not. Day begun good with some training. (like every day) I first have to explain that the building I work in is controlled by 3 owners who work together with the big boss of the company. So after Rasmus had left for a meeting an owner stapt forward to me and asked me some questions about my apperance. (my clothes and period of working) After that he asked me to remove my nosepiercing. In a tone which didn't want any struggling. I said I couldn't because he is fairly new and then I had to start all over again. (it will just close in that period) He became a bit mad and said (after asking who my supervisor was) that I could leave for the day. I was closing my jacket straight away, and he asked me to leave this instant. When I grabbed my bag in a separate room he looked me straight to the door. Checking if I would leave. I don't liked to be handeld that way after a week of working there. Or at least a week of travelling (one hour to the job and one hour back) and spending more money on this job so far then I earned. So I went of mad and already sended a textmessage to Rasmus to say I am sorry but I don't liked to be handeld this way. So that I will quit. I didn't get anything back so I am curious if the message came through. Otherwise I will hear tomorrow if they ring me up to see where I am. But no way they get me back. So that brings me back at the job marcket. And another week spoiled. I only have to 4th of januari to work. So I'm curious if I will be able to get a job, because it is a really short period... :-s Wish me luck.....
