First day at my new temp job. Missing my tea collection already… :-P
Today was a true test as I found out when I got there they have a big project due tomorrow and they hadn’t even started it yet when I arrived. Oy… I almost walked out the door after I heard that but stayed. Pretty unfair as I don’t know them, their projects or anything about the job really. It took me most of the day just to get the documents organized, not to mention what needs to go in them. Well I guess after tomorrow they may throw me out the door but it really wouldn’t be my fault as their expectations were totally unrealistic.
So I got this tea on my lunch break as there is a Peet’s nearby. Honestly I cannot rate this because tea was not made to be consumed in a paper cup with a tea-sac. I thought it had a light, vegetal flavor with a bit of bitterness but mostly I just tasted paper and vegetables.
There is a tea kettle in the new office so I will try to bring some teabags with me tomorrow, I will def. be needing a tea break or two at some point during the day.

Oh, this explains the sudden Peet’s reviews on your tasting log this week! (There’s a Peet’s by my work, too, so I’m making notes. ;) ) Good luck with the job and hopefully things got better after the first day.
thanks Chai. :) I really like their Scottish breakfast if you don’t mind a bit of smoke in your tea.
Yikes! Totally unfair if they blame you for their own incompetence!
Ugh! That’s not right. Hopefully it goes better on your second day!
Praying for your focus and grace under pressure!
Thanks everyone! Wish me luck :)
That’s rough. I hope it’ll go alright! Let’s hope it’s not always like that there.
Good luck! :)
