So very tired....

[ravensword]

So...today was my first day at my new job. It was mostly just company orientation, who they are, what they do, an intro to the various departments, etc. It started sometime around 8:15 or so and ran to about 3. At 3:15, my new boss said we were going to have a "team meeting". This involved the five of us still at the office leaving the office, walking a block up the street and going to a bar to have whiskey.

I got home to find that my unemployment claim forms were FINALLY in my mailbox. Came upstairs, logged in online and certified both of them. I should have my two unemployment checks at about the same time as my first paycheck.

I haven't been sleeping well, first in anticipation of the job offer, then in my excitement for my first day, so I am WIPED. I will probably be going to bed very soon.

My brain is still trying to absorb the awesome that whirlwind that this week has been.

I may not get there...at least not for a little bit. Just...wow guys. Just wow.

I am so, so thrilled and pleased you got the job! Congratulations!
That is a good "team meeting." I suppose it improves company morale on a Friday.

Also excellent news about the unemployment checks; pity bureaucracy takes so long.

I had a bet running with my mother that I'd get my first paycheck before I got my unemployment checks. I get paid on Friday....so...I still might. LOL.

I am SOOOO thrilled with this job. Amazing really. They don't come any more tailor made for someone with my diverse background of skills.
