Sounds like a neat experience, like an adventure really. The company seems to be on top of things as well (prepared for your arrival) which is nice. In my experience companies are never prepared for new employees. First days are spent reading policy binders while waiting for IT to set up the computer and passwords and all that lol.
I haven't had to take any business trips before but before I graduated college a few companies flew me to their location for an interview. One was to Las Vegas and the other to North Carolina. It was a neat experience to be offered multiple jobs before even graduating. Fire Sprinkler design was in very high demand at the time. Now only my wife travels for work and shes been to quite a few countries this year.
Yes exactly. It must be done, but is the worst.
I never made it to college, I'm not that smart, but I can imagine it would be cool to have people lusting after you to join their companies. I'd imagine at that age, graduate age, those trips would have been enjoyable too.
When I'm in the role, proper, I'll not have to travel much I think, just initially. I don't mind really, it's just that sometimes I feel a bit lonely when sitting in hotel rooms working. I go to the bar usually, but it's little better. Sitting in a bar by myself always makes me feel like Nigel no-friends. 😀
Yeah I hear you. I don't think that I would care for it either. It would be nice if you're in a place you haven't been and may not be able to go otherwise and you have some time to explore the city, but that's often not the case. It's like you said, you're often just alone at the hotel or restaurant which is less enjoyable.
I'll have Hive to keep me company I guess, and if I get bored I can always order everything off the room service menu and stay up all night watching pay TV.
Hahaha yep, those are your options 🤣
