Just finished first day of work!
Hello to all... As the posting title alludes, I have just finished my first day of work! I am temping (full-time hours) as the Corporate Communications Assistant at Bord Bia (The Irish Food Board). My recruitment company clearly had a flukey call the afternoon of the same day of my interview and as a result very unexpectedly started work the next day (ie. today!).
So although a temp position, I am working in the Media department, reporting to the Corporate Communications Manager. Total staff numbers however are around 80 - 90 so I am enjoying the luxuries of a nice interior building with many processes and other things that have not been available at past work places! You can have a look at http://www.bordbia.ie/ to get a proper idea of the company. Great people, all ages, great place to start, even if for a couple of weeks! It is also a 10 minute walk from our place so thank you again Ballsbridge (our suburb), for your excellent city-central location.
Nick and I are renting a car for the easter weekend and will be hooning (parental translation: driving sensibly) around the southern island exploring and what not over the public holiday period. We now also have internet -thank god! - the world wide communication channel is officially constantly available at 10 Upper Leeson Street!!!!!
Once again love to all, K xoxo
ps. thank you to all regular (& for that matter one-off) blog commentators, there's nothing like a blog comment to feel connected! :-)
