First day

[norsegirl]

First day here at the city. On lunch right now. Appears I can't access facebook here at all due to the city's IT filters, so I guess that will lure me back to LJ.

I'm on the 8th floor, ironically, just below where the partners used to sit at CB. So far so good. The woman in charge of training me was off on the day I was hired (Friday) so this morning was a bit of a surprise for her. She hasn't had much planned for training me as a result, so I've spent most of the day organizing stuff. I've got a nice, big cube-desk thing. We don't have a lunch room, so no eating together as a group, which is a bit of a bummer and a bit lonely, but that's life. I get every other Monday off. Would rather it was Fridays as Mondays doesn't help for SCA events at all, but again, that's life. Better Monday off than no day off at all. I also have to work kinda early (8-4:30) but that's okay too. I'm making enough here that I'm going to spring for a parking pass and kiss the damned public transit system buh-bye, so it's not as early as it would be if I had to catch a bus. And maybe me working early will mean Jason gets into work early and gets home in time to spend a little bit of time with me. That would be nice.

Anyway, lunch hour is over. Back to work for me.

It's an "Accounting Assistant" position. Not the most glamorous position in the world, but it pays better than Dell and seems to have a lot less crap. Co-workers seem good and my boss is both kind and competent, which is a nice change.

Grats on leaving Dell. Where are you headed to?

Belated congratulations too! And don't worry - there's always sitting on other people's desks at lunch...that's what I do.
