My First Week - Complete!

I completed my first week at work.

It was a short week since Monday was a holiday.

I went in two days - it could've been only one, but my computer wasn't ready on the first day, so I had to go back another day.

I love it so far.

The people are super chill.

They seem down to Earth and they are really smart. 

I enjoyed all the meetings I've been in so far.

I did a lot of head-nodding and there was a lot of agreement from my perspective on the approach on various things.

I will be working from home primarily.

This was the first day of school for the girls - virtually, so that's why I'm set up down at the dining room table. I do have my office upstairs, of course that I plan on utilizing a lot more now. 

Overall I feel really good. I really, really like the people, the place, the accounts I'll be working on. 

There will be several life-changing things I need to get used to:

1. NO TIMESHEETS. For anyone who works in my industry, knows that Timesheets are the WORST. Please keep track of your day in 15 minute increments so you can bill clients in 15 minute increments. I get it, we have to be paid based on what we do. But DAMN. 

2. NO JOB NUMBERS. WUT. No real paperwork either. It's all online and via a project management app. 

Not having to track my time each day is weird. As soon as I get off a call, I'm ready to input my time. Only to realize there's no inputting. 

I know this post is going up a bit late, as I'm coming up on completing my second week! It's been awesome and I am loving it so far. 

I really hope this works out. I can see myself here for a long time.
