My first week at Oriflame

Today is already my 5th working day at Oriflame. I don't have the feeling that I'm the lost son who found the path to heaven again.
The job content is completely different to what I had done before. I'm looking forward to the new challenge I have undertaken by joining again. I'm at the beginning of a new learning curve, which gives beautiful sparkles to the Oriflame dream. It surprised me that I know so little on the overall process. When you work in a department you only know the touch points with the other departments, but not really everything in dept. Next week I will have to learn all the ins and outs of the DRP process. I will have a continuous head ache. I’ll have to drink alcohol this weekend to free up space in my memory.
I had an SQL training yesterday in a very tiny, warm room. The projector and all the laptops added a few degrees to the average temperature of the room. By the end of the day my few brain cells were boiling and overloaded.
Luckily I still had a game of squash lined up. Danish dynamite made me run and at the end of the game I was completely exhausted. It made my head ache even worse, but what would men be without medication and a good night rest.
Today I'm feeling fine again and ready for some drinks at Place Lux tonight.
Tomorrow my parents are throwing a party for family and friends to celebrate their 60th birthday. I still cannot grasp the fact that they left the fifties behind them. I would like to age like they do. They have rented a venue and after a nice dinner we will be able to stretch our legs on the dance floor. We will have the make sure that we pick our favorite dancing shoes tomorrow evening.
