My two weeks' induction is over and this weekend, my first working weekend, I have been properly on shift. It's nice working in a place where that doesn't feel too much like being dropped in at the deep end, though, as I can ask five million questions without seeming to irritate a soul and everyone is happy to bail me out when I don't know quite what to do or how to do it. They seem to have an endless bank of patience and will show me again and again.
So this weekend was a little scary - I didn't feel ready to be responsible for anyone or anything - but also immense fun. A strange feeling this weekend having fun with someone else's children while a different someone else had fun with mine.
So now I am sitting here with my shoes off and my top off - it's so incredibly hot and humid - and wishing I didn't have to make myself respectable to go and meet the Smudgelet after his Alton Towers experience!
