First day on the job. I'm sitting in my corner cubicle (this time with walls that go up to my neck), in front of a computer I cannot log into, staring at the image to the right till about 4 PM because my computer wasn't set up. My welcome packet is 40 pages long - but half of those pages are local food menus, which is a very good sign. I learned how to use the coffee maker; insert a pack of coffee and it makes a cup and disposes of the empty pack for you. Very cool. I visited the cafeteria - not as big as Credit Suisse or BMG's cafeteria, but clean and more economical than orher big name corporation cafeterias. I had my first Vault soda there. "Drinks like a soda, kicks like an energy drink." I set up my voicemail cause my phone works. I received my temporary ID so I can make it past the guards at least. I read two binders worth of material that I think is irrelevant to me because it seems outdated. I read the manual for my new calculator, and realized calculators haven't advanced much since the last one I used in Junior High. And I wrote this blog entry, so I'm off to a pretty productive start.Wednesday, June 21, 2006
