Getting paid to not go to work

I have currently earned $950 this week..................for doing nothing!

Yes, you heard me right. There was an intial screw up in my position allocation. That plus the fact that the HR guy who is in charge of my allocation just came back from overseas and got the FLU (I hope not H1N1 though)!

As such, even though I officially started work last Monday, I've spent most of the last two weeks doing nothing.

I can't really complain, I mean I get to spend more time with my two babies (Syl and Lil J), and yet I am gettting paid. But there is a part of me that is a little worried that this might affect my career. I'm also kinda itching to go back to work. Moreover, with a I've read about the developments of the organization so far, I'm quite interested to explore my various options.

It seems that the organization has really developed rather progressively; for example, the learning festival I attended showcased the various changes in training methods and technology. What really got me interested was the emphasis to change padagogies to engage Gen Y era youths; with their focus on social networking and other forms of online techonologies.

So I am rather keen on to start work and learn more.

To be honest, I was a little apprehensive on whether I made the right decision choosing my current career path over an education one. At the moment, there are still a few doubts now and then, but I believe the only path now is to do my best to develop myself in this line of work and give my best to be a valuable asset to the organisation.

Looking forward!
