Onto Greener Pastures.....

When we left our faithful narrator, he had connivingly secured employment via his staffing agency, despite the large levels of incompetence and neglect that were standard trademarks in his non-profit adventure. After a weekend of strict office-related discipline, we find this humble observer ready to regain his status as a stellar employee. Not wishing to dissapoint his agency, he partook of the usual mood modification en route to the metro and smiling, prepared himself mentally for an exhaustively challenging day of administrative miracle working.

Luck was not on this plucky young lad's side however, as almost immediately after he left his household, he realized that he had forgotten to write down the directions to the office. After some extensive help from a local merchant, he found his way to the 8 story office building in NW and entered, ready to work his fingers past the bone, if necessary.

It seems that the office was ready for our humble narrator, and also were well-equipped with his multitudes of skills, as they immediately put him fast to work waiting for a phone call for a tech orientation from massachusetts. that being accomplished (and many of the finer points of microsoft outlook being explained, such as how to create and invite people to meetings), this plucky young lad set fast to work at staring at the computer screen. Eventually, he was given some papers in order, asked to doublecheck their chornological existence, and then filed them away. Some hours later, another task came through, this time involving printers and papers and excel spreadsheets. Our faithful narrator set to work at them so enthusiastically he almost lost his wind on one occasion when he sped from his seat to the printer. Eventually he was even given more papers to file, and there was a promise of yet another print job.

Somehow amongst the hustle and bustle, this humble observer has managed to log another journal entry. However, there may be many days before the opportunity and time to create another memoir presents itself. This plucky young lad asks that his faithful readers stay positive and patient, as he will educate them of his gainful employment adventures as soon as he possibly can.
