new dude at work

As is the norm with Canada Post these days there's a lot of new supervisors coming onboard from outside the company. I was one of them. Six months ago I wandered into my new post with no clear idea what was going on with the mail; sure I was pumped full of ideas about employee engagement and what not but as for practical knowledge... none. I was lucky that my friend Rob started working there a few months before I did and he was able to pass on all his wisdom to me, and now I find myself on the other side of things helping train a new supervisor this week.

I've got that little glow of personal well-being knowing that I am helping him learn, but it's also a bit of pride attached because in addition to teaching, I am still effectively running the stations he will be taking over, plus all my own work. And people are noticing and telling me I'm doing good work.

Fantastic.

That is all.
