first day of work and stuff
I finally cornered Carl and got him to portraitize with me, since I'd had the outfits sitting around for a week or two.
Yeah, so anyway. I got up at 7am, got to the IDX tower by 8:40. Had work orientation all morning. Only fell asleep once or twice, I swear. Went to lunch with Jack, started having my brain crammed with info. Had more orientation stuff. Went upstairs, then Rich stuffed more info into my head. Then there was an all-hands. Then I finally had a computer! So I set up some stuff, and then got more info stuffed into my head. Then my brain was full and everyone else went home, so I did too.
Well, not exactly. I went to Wild Ginger, where I had dinner with Dave Quinn and Brian Grunkemeyer, in our not-so-monthly-anymore babble-and-eat-expensive-food meetings. We had a lot of babbling and a lot of not-as-expensive-as-I-thought food that was absolutely superb. Dave gave me a ride home. Good times.
I'm doing laundry now. I read part of the employee manual today and it says something like "casual is fine, jeans and sneakers are fine, but t-shirts are only fine if they are plain and have no text or graphics on them". Doh! I think I will have to go clothes shopping this weekend... gonna need more polo shirts, or some button-down shirts I can wear over t-shirts or something. (For those that don't know me... 90% of the shirts I own are t-shirts with clever stuff or baseball stuff on them.)
And actually on another note, does anyone want to go to the Mariners-A's game on Wednesday night? It's one of my season ticket nights, but I don't have anyone to go with me yet.
