Stealing people's jobs

I'm not sure anyone even reads my blog anymore *sigh* based on the number of comments. Sheesh, people I left for two weeks, did you even notice I was gone????

However, even if no-one reads my blog but me, I shall continue to write it. Maybe I'll have to start writing my own comments too... (that'd be so sad. Please let me know you're still out there, so I don't resort to such lonely and self-obsessed behaviour).

Anyway, I feel like a bit of a job thief lately (please picture me masked, in a stripey jumper, with a bag labelled 'Loot'. No real reason. It's just funny, that's all...). I have secured the Kidz Bodz Position (yay!). At the end of last year I was advised to give them a call after Europe, as they didn't feel they could replace me while I was away. Yet I received a call a few days ago saying they'd found me a term 2 replacement, and the job was mine! Yay to that, but I am worried that someone who thought they had my job may have had an offer retracted??? Hope not.

Today I started a one week temp assignment with the Minister for Roads and Ports. I arrived to find another receptionist already here. Turned out I was replacing her, and she didn't even know she was leaving. Very awkward. The day has continued to be quite shambolic, with not much direction, but also not much to do but answer sporadic phone calls, wrangle with IT to get my computer and net access working as they should, and try and determine which people I am supposed to let in to the office and which I'm not (I'm still not sure). This is made tougher by the fact that it's a long day- 8.30-6.00pm. However, it is now 5.45, so at least it will end soon, and I can start afresh tomorrow. Plus, I have a mag for tomorrow, hopefully to make the day go faster :) What a crazy, crazy day.
