God (when i say God, i could very well be refering to Allah/Buddha/Beelzebub or whatever deity you feel free to worship) knows what the hell i'm likely to write in my blog...i've never had a blog before, never really felt the need to have a blog - come to think of it, it's only from shear boredom i'm even creating this monster!

I've started a new job. The new job involves: commuting 1.5 hrs each-way, which in itself is not an issue; a 55 hr week, again not an issue; but the ridiculous early start is killing me.
I'm not quite sure how I am meant to perform at my best when they expect me to rise so early for no apparent reason. The explanation they have given me so far is that: "you need to be there when the workers start..." BUT my orders are usually given the day before as a minimum and a week before as per standard protocol.
In the meantime I am: working to a budget and meeting a program I am not allowed to know. Things will start to get interesting come new year when I am suddenly held accountable for failing to deliver to deadlines I have not been allowed to know...
To my dismay my new boss seems completely uninterested in the few hundred thousand I can save through some contract reviews - which has me wondering: how much money do we stand to make/lose from this project that a few hundred thousand is not worth spending a day chasing?
Is my ignorance bliss?
