My first month at Toreon went by in the blink of an eye. It seems like yesterday that I felt nervous and a bit anxious to go to my first real job. I remember it kind of felt like I was 12 years old again and it was September 1st, 2009. The similarities were definitely there: making lunch before heading to work, waiting for the tram at the tram station, and of course stressing about something you might have forgotten even though it’s literally the first day of work. Above all I was eager to start this new chapter in my life, which would undoubtably change my life.
As much as there had been a comparison between my first day at Toreon and my first day in middle school, there was absolutely no comparison between my first month at Toreon and my first month at middle school. For starters, Toreon offers trainees a lot of freedom from the get-go. We are able to manage our own schedule and time as long as we stick to some important rules, like what tasks have precedence over other tasks. While having this ability we are still being watched by our designated mentors who guide us when stuck.
