New intern

by FeR on December 16, 2008 in work

Samantha was at the red door while I was getting in yesterday and I offered to show her upstairs (Bunty was talking to her when I arrived and they look like they were heading upstairs).

Not the whole grand tour lah, didn’t want to overwhelm the poor girl although I am excited to show/tell everything that is to know about work.

First day of work already kena do compounding – and of all things it was MagOH liquid. And she was wearing black top summore…can see small splatters of white after she’s done. And we forgot to tell her about her breaks. :oops:
Poor girl only had her morning tea break at 1155am!!! I meant to tell her when I got back from mine (1110am) but I forgot! We’re so used to looking out for our own break time. :hee:

Today we’re going to be working the evening shift together (one extra person for a Tuesday! Anton would be happy!) and I asked her to have lunch since our odd lunch time would be at 3pm. That would give us some time to sit down and chat.

Like myself, she was glad to have a Malaysian colleague. *hehe*
When she was being interviewed, she told me that she was informed that the (then) current intern is from Malaysia – and she wondered if thereafter I would stay on. Apparently she was also offered the 2 years (intern+pharmacist) contract.

Unfortunately, my roster is still uncertain.
When I got hired, the plan was for me to go to Hastings. Then I was told something came up, they found someone else and I will stay on at PD (I’m glad actually because I’m more familiar with the way things work here). Now they tell me the person didn’t actually agree to the job and I may be working in Hastings (or not, if they find someone else and it depends on whether that someone goes to Hastings or PD)… :huh:
Anyway, for this month, I’m being “shared” by two pharmacies. In January I’m slotting into Rory’s hours because he’s on a month’s leave. In February? Back to drawing board for that…but I hope when that time comes, it’s settled already.
