The ultimate shit start to the week has struck and I’m in bed having a sick day from work. There’s not much in this world that annoys me more than being poorly (ain’t nobody got time for that!) so I’m making the most of today by catching up on some office work, blogging and organising my diary. I’ve been learning a tonne since starting this internship and thought it could be interesting to do a post on my typical day at the moment.
Last Friday for example….
In the evenings I write a list of the remaining to-dos on my list on a new page in my notebook (which is basically my life-line of work because a lot of the time you’re hit with a lot of details to remember and the only way i can do this is to write it down, it also helps because when i answer the phone and take a message, finding spare post it notes in the office is like finding a tutu wearing unicorn)
7.30am Get up, spend too long in the shower and run out of the house at 8.45 without having breakfast.
9.30 am Arrive at Sloane square, get a coffee and do any pre-work tasks like picking up a magazine for the press book/ stock up on milk.
9.50 am Arrive at work, open laptop and add the jobs that have been emailed to me to my list.
