An Account of my first day at work

First job is something everyone is proud of as well as scared of.That is exactly what happened with me.I joined a media publication office in Delhi's NCR and was all set for my first day at work.The feeling of joining work when you are just out of college is still so fresh in my mind. The more you get closer to the joining date, the more you have questions, apprehensions and doubts. Of course there is excitement as there is the hope to find a good stability,growth and make new friends. To each their own, but for me my first day was exciting and eventful.

The moment i walked in the office,i was introduced to my boss by the H.R. She was a pretty looking woman in her late 30's; wore specks and was dressed in bright coloured Indian wear. She then introduced me to the team and gave them a short background info about me. It was a good moment to break the ice with everyone and i made most of it. Somewhere in the middle of the day, when i completed all my H.R related formalities, i got an email from my boss, to do a search on the top 10 fast food restaurants in Delhi. Taking this as an assignment, i did my best and made a list, added few references and sent it to her. Then she sent me another keyword to search on- subway locations. I did not understand this but kept doing what i am supposed to do.

Much later i realized that she just wanted to order a subway sandwich for everyone, including me, to celebrate my first day at work.My day could not have got better if not for her kind gesture and thoughtfulness. An amazing day i will never forget for a long time.
