   Very scary day today!
I had my second day of work today (I only work on Fridays) it was very very scary! First I just started off doing dumb things like made the coffee at 10:15 cause I thougt it was supposed to be made at 10:00 when it actually was supposed to be made at 10:30... not a big deal but at the time I was so stressed I poured freshly boiled water over my hand! I kept answering the phone wrong too like when my boss was having a huge fight with this client or something and the phone rang I put the guy on hold and I was just waiting outside the office looking stupid for some reason until Tim (one of the guys who works there) gives me this funny look and says you are going to have to take a message because you wouldn't want to disturd him now. I was like duh Mouse Bag you fool what are you doing! Then I was doing some typing and I had to keep annoying my boss cause I couldn't read his writing and then I had to deliver one of the letters I wrote and so he made me drive his car! AH I can barely drive my car and my car is a tiny little old crappy car so I was majorly stressed out. Here I am putting my dorky little provisional plates on his shiny car... I also forgot to adjust the mirrors and I couldn't see behind me and I kept holding people up at the traffic lights cause I was trying to fix them but doing other stupid things instead! His car is german too so the blinker is on the other side so I kept putting the windscreen wipers on! The I got West and South mixed up so when I went to go North I went East instead and got lost... oh dear. Plus I couldn't find reverse so I only got out of my park by rolling down the hill. Then I delivered the letter and I was like I have to give this package to Rob Mcdougal and he was like I think you mean Rob McDowel, and that's me... how embarassing! But the worst part of the day was when the car started making strang noises everytime I stopped so I put on the hand brake at the lights to ckeck it out and instead of taking my foot off the brake I took my foot off the clutch and stalled the car, then predictably the lights went green and I couldn't start the car cause the key was jammed and I didn't realise that you have to turn the car off if you want to start it again, that's not how my car works!!!! Not a memory I will treasure forever...
But I am still alive and apart from that funny noise that I am not too sure about I don't think there is anything wrong with his car, except the fern next to the office was making some pretty scary scratching noises on his nice and new paint... Oh well I only did what I was told... I warned him I wasn't a very good driver.
