The new job

So so, this is different....I have never worked in a lawyers firm before....this is serious stuff!
At the moment there is a lot to do because the company is moving to a different location next weekend, right to the Potsdamer Platz. Because of that there is a lot archive work to do and mostly you do it in standing position...did I mentioned my high heeled shoes??? Which almost killed my feet yesterday??? There is a lot new stuff to learn for me, especially all the names of the lawyers and their secretarys...around 20 lawyers and at least 20 secretarys...puh, my brain is smoking because I have to connect the incoming telephone calls to the right person without taking ages to find them on the listwith the right number (hopefully the person on the other side has not hung up in the meantime...oops, no just kidding, I am not THAT slow!) So the telephone is still my biggest fear..

What else am I doing? Achive work, preparing the outgoing mail, incoming emails & faxes, preparing the meeting rooms incl. coffee etc. So far so good. The people are very nice and do already jokes with me ;-) but I am also glad to be off now for the next 4 days as everybody else is (I wasnt off for any holidays since January 2002!!!) So thats new for me too, always worked in hotels which have the most to do for Easter, New Years and weekends, but now I am off ...strange but good strange of course.

I am pretty tired now and will go to bed to relax and being ready for the upcoming weekend (going to Boss Hoss on Saturday and the MaBaker Party afterwards...yeah).

Kisses, Mel
