New job

Last February I was desperately searching for a job, knowing that I wanted to expand my curriculum vitae. At the same time my sister's birthday was right away and therefore, she went shopping with my parents to find herself a birthday present. When they visited jeweller Rijnders for a chain, my sister saw a vacancy at the balustrade of the jeweller. She immediately called me to say that I had to apply at this jeweller. Forthwith I wrote an application letter to this jeweller located in Valkenswaard. One week after I posted my letter, a woman called me to say that I was invited for a short conversation. Finally, my conversation with the owner went well and she invited me for a first workday. She gave me the job! As happy as I was, I went to my first workday, not aware of all the difficulties that were waiting for me that day. We had to replace batteries and switch caps of watches by ourselves. Besides, I had to keep all brands, new collections, gift boxes, keys of showcases and colors of watches in mind. Nevertheless, it was absolutely a challenge for me, but to be honest I underestimated the job a lot.

However, all these aspects that I had to deal with were just fun to keep in mind. But there was actually a larger snare: the computer system. Every single acquisition was stored in the computer system, because then the warranty could always be checked. In this way, we have evidence when some customers claim that they have bought something at our jeweller. If the system crashes, however, all data are lost. Therefore, there is a backup computer that is connected to the normal network.

Still after three workdays, I do not know all the ins and outs of the computer system, but I hope time will be my best friend...
