Those dreaded words - Health and Safety!

Today was the third of my five days of Health and Safety Training. If you mention the word IOSH in my office, there is a strange murmuring the echoes around the room, some will burst into laughter and some will rush out of the room to be sick! I had been looking forward to this course though as it is five whole days away from the office which I really needed! I have learnt a lot on the course so far - mainly lacking in my training, which I have already delivered to the students, and so I have spent much of today trying to work out how to rectify this problem! (While trying to still listen!)

It has also been good to meet people who work for somewhere other than Kent Union. It has opened my eyes to how little I have moved on since graduating and I am now at last beginning to accept the inevitable - I am no longer a student, I am indeed a young professional graduate. Scary! I have yet to work out the logistics of what this means in terms of the way I live my life but am excited to begin to take steps forward. Will I make it? I suppose the most important question right now is - will I survive IOSH?
