And I don't know if that's a good thing.
I always do this thing when I start new jobs where I dream of nothing but that job every night. About all the things I have to do, questions I need to ask, things I wish I would've done or said... I know a lot of people say to make lists before you go to bed-- WELL I DO!!! They just don't seem to help my mind shut down. -- And I've been here almost 8 months!!!!!
You would not believe the lists I make out-- even if nothing has changed from the day before, I will make a brand new list out in hopes that just the process of writing it will make me think of something I missed or maybe make me feel not so freaked out??
Doesn't work.
Last week, I worked 15 OT Hours and this week 11... I'm not really complaining though. I have been working through lunch-- today I took my lunch at 2:45, for about 15 minutes... But it's my choice! If I wanted lunch, I could take an hour lunch-- I just love the feeling of getting things done. Well that and I have so much work I need to do, I seriously should never just be sitting there. It's totally different from the my first month here. But I like it-- not necessarily when my list is built up, but when I am crossing out each task knowing they are completed to absolute best of my ability-- now that is magic.
We are actually going on an off-site "field trip," if you will, tomorrow. We are touring a Research facility and hearing about different programs that actually may help us out in the immediate future. I'm pretty excited to learn more about the future of this company. However, since I will be offline from work during the day tomorrow, that means I need to work this weekend to catch up, which I'm okay with!
Yes, I'm a freak. No, I don't plan on being one of those workaholics my whole life. But, DAMN, this feels good. :-)
