woodfaceIt is standard for new employees with the Post to work three days in the field. Which is what I've been doing this week and let me tell you something? ZOMG EXHAUSTING!
Yesterday I went on rounds with 'Collections', basically they're the guys in the trucks that drive around and empty the boxes and go collect everything from the postal offices. It's actually pretty hard work as you have to lug around a lot and omg, paper is HEAVY.
Today, I had to get up bright and early and go with the mailman. We actually finished earlier than planned which was yay, but omg my knee hurts like a bitch. It was a bike round which was kind of fun and he really didn't expect me to do anything (because I'd be more in the way than anything else). Am so glad I got lucky with the weather and got the one dry day of the week. But now I want to sleep so badly.
Tomorrow, I get to go into the post office and watch stamp selling... Not looking forward to that as it's going to end up being pretty boring.
Want sleep now.

Selling stamps does sound boring though. But, hey, it's only for one day, right?

You know, except for the part where I'm all sore and stuff.
