First day down

And it went well, very well.

I'm exhausted - no wonder since I've been lounging around the house for the past couple of months. Heh. Nah, it's actually information overload. I've had a crash course in mortgage banking plus the usual first-day orientation stuff. My head is swimming.

First project meeting is tomorrow - no fooling around here. I'll be starting with two projects, and a third is waiting for after I get a little more acclimated. I will be busy, and I'm glad.

Unexpectedly good: my new commute. Got there and back in about 45 minutes, and that includes driving in freezing rain on the way home.

Unexpectedly bad: I accidentally reset the combination lock that tethers my new laptop to my desk. How embarrassing to have to call the helpdesk on Day 2 and explain that one.

All in all, a very satisfying day.

And I'm not going to talk about it anymore. I'm really ready to get back to other topics.

2 points of view:

  1. Oh heavens, mortgage banking? wow. my head would have already exploded by day 2. Congratulations again!
