My cat is sadly honking at me. I believe she is ready for her second can of food. She will definitely get one. Her appetite is inconsistent. She'll eat really well for a few days, and then she'll not want to eat for a day. The vet said it's probably just because she's older, and her labs were excellent, so he's not worried about it, but it freaks me out every single time.
Yesterday went really well. In what I think was a good sign, I bored the hell out of the person who was shadowing me. She told me this, right before she started playing Final Fantasy on her Switch while laying on the floor in her living room with the cat on her. She told me that I had too much common sense to mess up, and left me to it.
The morning was doing administrative tasks, like sending out error notifications, and helping to find people appointments. None of it was particularly difficult, actually kind of meditative.
The afternoon was fairly slow. I took questions, but there were only a couple of early ones that were tough. I knew the answer, but I wanted to verify it with her. But by the end, I was trusting my instincts, and got them all correct. Also, I interacted well. I was kind and probably gave more info than I needed to, but the people I answered seemed to appreciate it.
Actually, one of the people I helped had a patient whose appt had been incorrectly scheduled. And I looked at it and agreed that it had been improperly scheduled. Then, I stated what they'd need for the appt and confirmed that it couldn't be done at the time. But I also remembered that when I sent a message to the site earlier about getting a patient in, the site closest to her had a bunch of appointments. So I pointed that out. And the patient was so thrilled that she insisted on talking to a supervisor and giving the coworker a compliment. And I was like "Mah duckling." I was proud to have a hand in it and to have helped get her the kudo.
The shadower did let slip that there are three of us who are getting this tryout. And from her surprise and boredom, I get the feeling that the person yesterday needed more direction.
The last person goes today, so I suppose I could get an answer soon? I have no clue.
Okay, time for me to consider getting myself together. Everyone have an excellent Wednesday!
