So Induction week was intense and very tiring but on the same note I did enjoy it! There was a lot to take in and that will continue throughout training, I just can’t stress enough how important it is to get as much sleep as possible and make sure you are eating and drinking plenty of water.
So Thursday evening I went out to dinner with my Dad to Nobu at the Atlantis Hotel. The food was amazing it is a Japanese restaurant and the Sushi was the best I have ever had and I tried lots of new things!
After I went to Barasti to meet the girls who all started at the same time as me, and live in the same accommodation as I do. We ended up dancing on the beach until 2.30am by this time I was ready for my bed after being up at 4.30am to get to college!
Friday me and two of my batch mates Jade and Kim went down to the Jumeirah Beach for the afternoon. We then got a taxi to the Marina and had tea down there whilst the sun set. We couldn’t go out Friday evening as even though Saturday is our day off we had a Mosque visit at 6.30am.
I was really looking forward to the Mosque visit as it is something you probably wouldn’t get the chance ever to do. Even though the experience was short it was very interesting and I didn’t realise how similar Muslims and Christians are in their beliefs. The Mosque was inside was very detailed as you can see from my pictures.
In the afternoon I went to the Mall with Kim and Jade and had a browse around and we got some lunch. I didn’t buy anything but secretly wish I had now!!
I want people who have either got the job with EK or plan to apply for it that it is not easy and not a holiday once you get out to Dubai. You would be amazed how many people are homesick and are contemplating going home. I want to add nothing to do with EK but the fact that they miss family and friends or they didn’t realise how much work is and will be involved from induction through to training.
Today and tomorrow are the last two days of Induction and then my training officially starts on Tuesday 11th December. I am going to be on the late shift which is 3.30pm until 11.30pm. There are 3 sets of shifts starting at 7.30am, 12.30pm and 3.30pm you don’t get a choice just depends which one your batch falls into.
Tomorrow is uniform fitting which I am extremely excited about and I think we get out little suitcase as well!! So I will be sure to blog tomorrow and tell you all about it!!
dubai dreams come true
