Unconscious in the Workplace

I've been out of work for a year and now BANG am working full time. I try to bring my experience into awareness as much as I can. Today I succeeded in doing so for about 2 minutes. If that.
The rest of the time I drifted around on the waves that presented themselves: waves of new information, new people, new faces, new tasks.
There's only one constant: Alice Springs.
At the unemployment desk I am now in the chair "on the other side".
I had my first staff meeting; it resembled the United Nations. I liked that. I'll let you know how I go with bringing awareness to work and to interaction with the Other.
