Good job? You can bet on it!

Okay, start things off on a positive note! So it's now over a week since I started my new job, and so far it's been great, I'm very happy to report!
The people are friendly, yet from the start I've been shown how to do the job and not having to be all social too much, I didn't even get introduced to everyone! So that was good, I got introduced to the other members of our team (of 5), and have been saying hello to other people as and when I see them, in the kitchen or whatever.
So the bloke that's been training me has been really good, he's very good at explaining things and is patient and upbeat - so far I haven't come across any bitching which is good.

As for the job itself, I couldn't really ask for more. I've been setting up sports fixtures on the computer as betting events, and inputting sports results. There's about 18 small tv's with odds on, mainly horses and greyhounds, plus other sports. Three big screens with tv on them, one dedictaed to horses and dogs, the others showing sports news and whatever event happens to be on - football highlights, tennis, cricket, golf, whatever. The office is adult and laid back, no stupid patronising rules or people yet. The kitchen is huge, they provide you with milk, tea, coffee (make your own of course) plus there's a microwave, a dishwasher and even a cooker!

So after seven days in, I'm thoroughly enjoying it and am enjoying actually going to work and looking forward to it, it's a long time since that happened. So, hurrah!
