New Office, New Post

It’s not that I didn’t have anything to write about, it’s just that I …didn’t write anything. For 3 months. There’s just something about an office environment that is conducive to blogging…what did you say? Boredom? Nah, it’s too early in the new job to be claiming that already. Things are quiet here, though. It’s holiday season, half of my would-be team is on vacation, and the new manager is in and out of meetings.

The office has beautiful views. We’re on the 48th floor down on Water Street, and man, does the Statue of Liberty seem tiny from up here! I can see out the window behind me when they leave the conference door open; otherwise, I have to get up and walk up to the room to gawk around.

I sit around the corner from the CEO. And I’m writing a blog post. Hmm.

They gave me a laptop, but it looks exactly like the one I have – Dell 2004. And I don’t know how to take it out of the dock. Hmm.

I might get sent up to Boston soon, yay!

Better posts to come, and more often. I hope.


Update: I am now the proud owner of the company laptop bag and fleece. And I have a badge so I can get in and out of the building without lying down on an x-ray conveyor belt.
