It has been a week at my new job as an admin assistant at Jasmine & Associates. I was the 'understudy' for the current admin person, Geraldine, who would be leaving at the end of the month. So far, it has been quite a peaceful first week. Geraldine always teaches me a few things then goes on with her work. When I am done, I just wait around for more things to do. The boss, Jasmine was away on course this week and rarely dropped by, so I had the whole place to myself most of the time. It felt very relaxing to have no one watching over your shoulder. I hope it stays like this next week. Overall, the workload is manageable, not too stressful and I still have time to play WoW every night when I get home.
The strange thing is that, up to now, I don't even know my exact salary (aside from a range) since I haven't signed any letter of appointment yet. The boss wasn't around most of the time and I only learnt from Gerlandine on Thursday that they don't practice preparing appointment letters. I guess I will try again next week. Hopefully I can bargain with her next week.
