Here I am in week 3 of the new job. Enjoying myself so far – everyone here is really nice, so the whole process of being the “new guy” hasn’t been as intimidating as I was expecting. I haven’t honestly done much “work” yet, which is at the same time kind of nice and a little frustrating. I’m a little uncomfortable being paid but not contributing. I know, that makes me sound like a big loser, but its just how I am.

People seem really busy around here, so I haven’t gotten a lot of one on one tutelage. A little on my first couple of days, but after that I was left to fill out my security paperwork and now I’m just reading manuals and code snippets on my own. One can only glean so much from that, but I’ve been told that hopefully this week I should get to sit in on some sessions that will help me out a lot more.

On the website front, Kamil is all on my ass to start doing my comic strip, which I have entitled “2s Complement” which is both geeky and appropriate to the strip’s content. If you don’t know why its geeky try doing some Googling, I’m sure you can figure it out. The strips I’ve done for it already I’m honestly not terribly happy with – I was when I finished them of course, but now that I’ve had some time to look at them, there’s a lot about them that bother me. So, while Kamil helps me get the website itself together, hopefully I’ll get myself together on a look/feel to the strip that I like more. So look for all that in the near future.
