Now that's what a first day is supposed to be like.
There were meetings, and conference calls, and some paper work. Introductions, and tours. And of course some requisite down times - you know, where there is really not alot you can be doing and the folks who need to be showing you what to do really need to get some of their own work done. Those times were you read through the intranet site or the employee handbook.
The people are friendly, the environment is tidy and corporate - just the way weese likes her environments.
My new company makes a product... an actual product... you can hold in your hand and buy at a store. This is very unique for me as I have always worked for software companies. Today I met people who had been with this company for over 30 years. I have never worked for a company that's even been around for that long. What is really exciting is later this week I get to spend a day on a delivery truck, to get to understand that side of the business.
I am so excited.
I wonder if they'll let me wear a uniform. :)

Landing a job these days is like winning the lottery. I'm so happy for you.

Having just made it through the third round of layoffs, I'm glad I didn't have to get my unemployment filing hat back on. I was a dot.com bust victim a few years ago.
Congrats! And, I hope you have...well, not 30 years there, but enough.
Woot woot! Weese in a uniform!
