Things you enjoy at the workplace?

• The general feel of the hospital: compassion and the collective effort to help people in need
• Helping patients feel a bit better about what they're going through
• Meeting new people from all walks of life...and getting to know more about them
• That I get to help make someone feel better - that is really important to me that I have a job that enables me to make a difference
• All the things I'm learning about medicine...tests, ailments, surgeries, etc.
• The people I work with
• Working in a Christian environment
• Pioneer Park - one of the waiting areas that's an actual park! Its right outside the ER and its so nice to walk through when you need a moment to yourself
• The volunteers that work hard and truly enjoy helping out
• The cafeteria and its staff....yummy food and fun/sweet people

I made a thread that talks more about my new job and what I've encountered the past few days: http://petoftheday.com/talk/showthread.php?t=90253

• Unlimited free movies
• Some of the managers are really nice. There's one that *always* jokes around and asks if I dyed my hair or got a new piercing.
• My co-workers. Probably the main reason why I haven't left yet. I have loads of fun working with some of them... just a couple nights ago, we got bored and started playing hockey with broomsticks and smashed plastic cups. We were playing right in front of one of the managers and she told us to move cause the customers might see. LOL
• I'm much more confident and outgoing now

well I have only been working for a week, but everyone is really nice, they like to joke around and chat, the work itself is simple, pretty much all the custamers are older people who really dont mind that it might take me a bit to figer things out, everyone knows all the delivery men by name, and joke around with them etc.. its really very simple stuff, today I spent my entire day(8 hours) replacing order numbers on the shelves, and I still aint done! I mean basicly what I do is place orders(reading the stickers and typing numbers into a computer) and when orders come in open boxes, stick on the inventory stickers, toss em in a cart and put them away, with the occasional till work in between, and thats about it lol not too tricky, and only one crabby co-worker who nobody likes and nobody takes seriously anyway, why on earth she is working with the public is beyond me lol

I like the freedom of being able to try new recipes or creating my own. My Captain can spot a homemade cake over a boxed cake in a heartbeat or a homemade pie over a thrown together quickie and always compliments me on them. I love it when I cook something they really like and they all but threaten each others lives on who gets the left overs first!!

Then I love it when they come to me for advice or they need help with something, a lost button, a slpinter in their finger, what to do for that tummy ache... The cook is Dear Abby, Dr. Mom, and a all around problem solver out there on the river. Some of them even ask me to make them cards to send home for a birthday or some special day since I take a laptop and printer out there with me and I love doing things on the computer for them. Best of all I LOVE THE PAY AND TIME OFF!!
