It only took me an hour and a half to get home today - haha! That's okay, though. I don't mind it too much. It just means that I'm going to get to know downtown really well.
I got to work at 8:00 this morning, after discovering that it takes me 10 minutes to walk from the Ali Center garage to the Riverview Square building. I really like walking downtown, though. Our trainers name is David and he's 28 but he looks like he's 18. Hehe. But he's cool and pretty laid back. There are eight people in our training class. I sit next to James. He is from Brandenburg, KY and his wife also works for Humana. Behind me is Kandee and she's pregnant and due in March. Yay for her! Next to her is Tonya and she went to Butler and graduated in '01. She went to NKU. Across the aisle from myself and James are Leslie and Marlon. Leslie is from Owensboro and went to UofL. She lives in St. James Ct. with her boyfriend and is really cool. I like her a lot. We both worked with the same girl, but at different places and at different times (obviously), so that's something we share in common. Marlon went to PRP and that's really all I know about him. Behind them are Heidi, a former truck driver who is getting over bronchitis and coughs a lot, and Quisha, who is also pregnant and it due in February. She's 24 and this will be her fourth child. More power to her. So that's our training class, and we will all be spending the next 21 days together in Training Room A on the 8th floor. :o)
We went to lunch at the National City Tower, so it was kind of ironic ... like it all came full circle or something, haha. I don't know, but it was funny. We got out at 5 and I was in line to get onto 65 at 5:20. By 5:45 I had gone less than a mile and decided to call Eric and exit onto St. Catherine so he could guide me home that way. I took Bardstown all the way down and I got home about 6:30. Good times.
Here is what I looked like today ... although from now on I will be wearing flats and khakis and polo shirts, and on Fridays I get to wear jeans and tennis shoes! I'm pretty excited about that. You can also see our yellow hallway behind me.
Here is a double rainbow (look carefully) from just a few minutes ago. It went all the way across the sky!
I feel like I just got home, but it's already almost 9:00. That's okay, though ... on a normal day for the next four weeks I will get home an hour earlier than I did today. When my real shift starts, I really won't get home until 6:30, like I did today. It will take some getting used to, but I'm excited about the job. We got to sit with someone today and listen to the calls they took for a little while. It's overwhelming, but David keeps telling us that it's not a hard job; it's just confusing. And honestly, it is pretty cushy - we get to sit in a cubicle and we're not outside in extreme temperatures, we do the same thing all day, and we get to decorate our cubicle however we want. Haha. I'm so excited about having my own cubicle. It's ridiculous.
