Day One: Brave New World
So day one is going ok at the new job. I have a lot of learning to do to get some rust off my technical skills. I really haven't done any serious IT development work in five years... it's all been project management.
It's kinda cool here so far. I seem to be very popular. I've been paraded through several directors' and VPs' offices to do meet and greets and everyone seems to be happy that I'm here. That usually means one of several things... either there's an buttload of work that I'll be taking off their plates, they're insane, or they're generally happy to see me.
It'll be interesting to see how this works out. The first couple of weeks I imagine will be all getting to know the world and such. After that, though I should have a good idea about what the life's like.
Good or bad, there's a paycheck at the end of the day.
Also, I arrived 30 minutes early today because there was no traffic.
