Well I'm on to week 3 at my new job and settling in pretty well. Its soooo very different from my last few law jobs. A friend asked me what it was that was making me not immediately fall into it. And I started to say that the people were weird. And then I stopped. Its not that they are weird.
Its that they are all (or at least - all seem to be) so ... normal. Very ... mainstream. And in my last jobs the legal minds that be were pretty much all left-of-centre politico's who all had all foregone big salaries and prestigious jobs to do legal aid work and never charge a client.
I loved that about the work - even in its most stressful moments.
I'm now in a different world and working on adjusting. Its ok. And everyone is "nice". But they just aren't like me. I'm searching for someone to be my friend there. Not sure he/she exists though. At least not openly.
Oh and some cuteness for your day here is Rhian in the park the other day. She'll be 19 months next week - how did that happen?

OMG, she's so big! And cute!! For what it's worth, I started a new job 3 months ago and felt like you do at week 3. It took some time but I did make friends at work. I'm sure you will too. :)
ReplyDelete19 months? How is that possible? She just the most adorable little lady!
ReplyDeleteWhat a BIG girl! And so cute :-).
ReplyDeleteHope you find work friends.
I have to say that most of the friends I've made at work--never would have guessed it from when I first started working with them.
ReplyDeleteRhian just gets cuter every time you post a pic!
She is so darn cute!!
ReplyDeleteHang in there. You will settle in. And that daughter of yours is darling!!!
ReplyDeleteActually "LIsa" you totally meant to be rude. And that is really not OK. If you disagree - don't read the blog. You selfish brat.
ReplyDeleteWell, I couldn't agree more with the whole thing;) Tho perhaps I agree just a whit more strongly that she is the queen of cuteness (and many other lovely things, too!). AW
ReplyDelete19 months? She's a toddler? I remember reading about her homecoming as a newborn! She looks so happy--what a great girl (with a great mom!)
