second day! 🎀

Challenging Second Day

Today marks the real start of my On-the-Job Training! Our supervisor informed us that the call time for PM sessions is at 12 noon. I started getting ready at 9 AM—super early, right? If you remember from my last blog, I mentioned that I don’t have any black clothes that don’t show too much skin. So, I had to get ready early to find something suitable for work!

I left the house at around 10:55 AM and arrived at my workplace exactly at 12 noon. Right on time! Our supervisor arrived an hour later, at 1 PM. She handed us the attendance sheet to fill out and then gave my coworkers and I a task: to distribute 10 survey questionnaires to people aged 18 and above. The survey was about employment, and we also had to provide pictures as proof.

This task was a big challenge for me because, honestly, I’m super shy when it comes to approaching people. I’m the type of person who waits for others to make the first move in conversations. But with the help of my classmates that is also my coworkers, Nelson and Echo, I managed to gather some responses. We spent the day roaming around Arca South, searching for people willing to answer our survey.

I felt so shy and embarrassed whenever someone turned us down. But guess what? I did it! I managed to get all 10 surveys answered. Thanks to my family and friends who answered the survey LOLLL
