Pulled some more overtime tonight, so I'm writing through my breaks again.
Today was the first time I've had to handle a freight shipment. I don't think it's a coincidence that we learned about freight shipping at the training meeting last Saturday. It wasn't too difficult, just a lot of things to back. Out of sixteen boxes, fifteen had the same type of item, which made it easy for a first time. It did mean that I spoke too soon when I thought that there probably wouldn't be any freight moving out of the digital room. Sixteen boxes, 128 rolls of stickers, and 800,000 stickers total. It's the biggest order I've ever boxed, at least in terms of sheer quantity.
Other than that, there's no big news today. They've removed two of the vending machines in the break room, including the only snack machine. That would explain why they were letting it empty out without being restocked. I was beginning to wonder if the company just didn't care that much about them.
It actually has been three weeks since I started. It's been so busy that it seems longer. Maybe it's because things aren't too different from one day to the next. It could be because I get a lot of overtime, though I don't always take advantage of it.
Actually, I had meant to finally get myself signed up for the digital clock-in system today, but then the freight shipment came up, and that took first priority. I figure, what's one more day at least using a paper time sheet? I wanted to make sure I got the order some correctly.

Just got off work. It's 11:40 PM and I need to hurry to post this by midnight.

Home with four minutes to spare.
