Jul. 15th, 2005 08:39 pmSo, my new job. Well. What to say, what to say?
I've already been moved once, from my city centre office to somewhere outside the ring road, which does not please me greatly. Still, the people I am with seem nice and have made me feel very welcome even if the general reception to what I'm actually going to be doing is 'oh, okay'.
Essentially, I've spent a week doing pretty much nothing but setting up appointments to meet with people over the next couple of weeks. Those people who actually got back to me, that is. Still, in some ways I could argue that I needed to catch my breath after just finishing my old job in a flurry of paperwork last Friday and also to get acclimated to having a 90-mile round trip to work (urk).
The overall consensus? It's like real work, except for the sitting around, doing pretty much bugger all and getting paid more money to do so... ;) I'm sure it won't last.
