8:30 to 5:00
It is amazing how sitting at a desk from 8:30 in the morning to 5:00 in the afternoon can make you tired, but it does. I’m sure I’ll get used to it in a while. It has been a while since I have gotten up early in the morning, day after day. That is why I haven’t posted in a while. Plus, I haven’t had anything that interesting to write about.
I’m enjoying my job, though. There are a lot of things I need to learn, but once I do, I think my job will be fairly easy. In the last three days, I have been reviewing some applications and trying to figure out who qualifies and who doesn’t and why. I’ve also been building an Excel sheet for all of the positions that are currently open and which ones have been closed or filled. Other than that, I haven’t been doing a whole lot, but I am sure that that will change as soon as I get into the swing of things.
You should see my office. It’s HUGE! I took a picture of it on my cell phone, but the quality of that picture is not very good. One day, I will have to take my camera in and get a better one. I never imagined that I would have an office so large. I have three windows, too. Now, I just need to decorate it. My walls are bare and white. People keep poking their heads in and asking when I am going to put stuff up.
I’m also working with a bunch of wonderful people. They are all very nice and have been very welcoming. And, the best part about them – they are all very understanding.
Well, I should go. I have somethings things I want to get done before my bed time – which needs to be somewhere between 9:30 and 10:00 if I want to feel well rested when my alarm goes off at 6:30. I’ll try posting something more interesting soon.
Glad you are settling in. Keep us informed.

And people wondered why I used to blog from work. I had to stay awake somehow. Hopefully your job is a little more exciting.

Yeah – I do most of my blogging from work. (Most – not all of it on a portion of my lunch hour.) I guess that’s my version of sticking it to “The Man” daily here in corporate America. Sometimes I take pens home. Anyway, post the blurry picture of your office, big baller.

@ jadedconformist – I’ll post a picture when I have a decent one. I’d have to take a picture of my cellphone screen and I don’t think that you’d be able to make out anything.
@ TOPolk – I’ll have to start writing from work,too, I think. It takes a lot to pick up my lappy and write something when I come home. I just like getting out of my office though. Guess I will figure something out.
