Day 348 – Practicing Patience
I’ve been on the job now for three weeks, and so far, I have
nothing to do except “on-boarding.” The
orientation process seems to be self guided, and at times, self created. I watched all the orientation videos, and
read various documentation online, but I have little to do otherwise. I haven’t yet met the One Stop team – those I
am supposed to be training – but I’ve been told that once the training on our
new systems has been completed, my introductions and my work will begin.
I find myself chomping at the bit, wanting to get busy doing
what I’m supposed to be doing. Without a
clear picture, I feel a little unsettled, but maybe by jumping into the middle
of it will help me get a better idea of what the team will need from me. I hope I get something to work on soon.
In the meantime, I remind myself of the definition of
Patience I heard decades ago: “Patience” is not letting anyone know you don’t
have any. I am getting some practice on
this.
