"Hello? Hello?"

So I had my first day of surveying yesterday. They spent the first few hours training us and then from 7:15 to 10:30 I was on the phones. It's actually not that bad of a job. I think I may even like it, plus I will still have plenty of time to go swimming during the day before my shift. The only negative thing about the job is that each day I only get 5 hour shifts, so it is going to be extra hard to get in a 40 hour work week. Hopefully that lifeguarding job comes through.
