A Typical Day
I've been really busy with work in the last few weeks which is why I haven't been able to post as often as I would like to. I just got a new assignment last Thursday, so now I have to worry about another training program for my division. I'm barely finished with the first training program I'm building up. I've also been busy supervising the new hires and the trainees just to make sure that they integrate well into the division. Plus, I'm getting much more involved in the recruitment process for our training pool, so that's another thing I have to spend time on.
A typical day for me these days begins with me spending time in the gym almost every morning. It's either I'm attending dance classes or I'm lifting weights to get rid of my flab. The dance classes are quite ridiculous, but I have to admit a lot of fun. I also make sure I spend some time on the treadmill just to get keep increasing my endurance.
After my workout, I buy myself and my sister breakfast. Then I go home and get some much needed sleep the rest of the day. If I have to catch a movie, I wake up at 3 PM. If I'm not really after watching anything, I sleep until 6:30 PM.
By 7:30 PM, I need to be out of the house if I am to make it to the office by 8:30 PM. Sometimes I leave earlier if I want to have dinner in the mall. By the time I get to the office, I give myself at least 30 mins. to settle down then I spend the next 8-9 hours working on various projects, attending meetings or coaching people on things they need to work on. So at any given time, there can be at least 3 people looking for me at my post.
If I'm lucky, I can leave the office at 5:30 AM. If on that day, I have so much work to do, I leave at 7 AM. It's not so bad. I've been tempted many times to bring my work home. However, I realized how that managed to burn me out the last time, so I leave everything in the office.
So far I have no complaints. I've adjusted really well to the new work environment. All my bosses are quite nice to me, so I just do my job and keep them updated. No one pressures me unnecessarily and no one from the office calls me when I'm at home. I'll do this for a year and then it will be time again to re-evaluate my life.
