So how have you been, Internet? It's been a week since I've started down this new path I'm in, and I'm still trying to get a more solid foothold. Human Resources is a new domain for me, but it's something I've been meaning to dip into. So far, I feel like there's still a lot for me to learn, and I should concentrate on getting a more stable mindset on what I should be doing. To say things are totally different where I am now is an understatement. In operations, there are firm guidelines on how and when things should get done, but here, a lot relies on one's sense of judgment. Sure there are still protocols to follow, but they are strictly reserved for more mundane things such as paperwork and number-crunching. Most of the shift is spent on talking and dealing with people... something I'm still not sure if I'm comfortable doing, to be perfectly honest.
Ah, well. One thing's for sure, I'm not going to quit on this one easily. I am determined to get things done right this time. Even though I feel inadequate and, well, ill-equipped, a lot of people believe I can pull this off anyway. For everyone's sake, I hope they're right. :-)
