On The Job Part Two

It has been a busy week. I survived two 8 hour days of job training. There are four of us new employees. Thankfully we get along, we have had fun and gotten to know one another. The training consists of paperwork, watching video upon video, taking tests, more videos, more tests and discussion. My title is "Homecare Aide". I work for an angency that provides housekeeping, meal preperation, errand service to Seniors. I have never "worked" with Seniors before but I have gotten to know plenty of them at the nursing home where my sister is. I love to keep someone elses home, fix meals and run errands so this is right up my alley. Next week I have two half days of training. I have to go for a TB test and finger printing.

Whew! I have not had a "real" job like this in many years. I prefer to work privately for people and hope to get back into that very soon. But I am looking forward to the income!

I thank the Lord for how this has all come about and for what He has in store for me. :-) He is all I've got, He is all I need.

Oh Jenny! This is perfect for you, God has greatly blessed you with this job! I love older people, oh sure some might get a bit cranky, but they've earned that... :) I have found most older people to be very kind. My prayers are always with you especially now as you embark on this new, exciting chapter of your life! Congratulations!
