New Job
Quickie post to bring you up to speed.
Last Wednesday I started a new job, doing development work at a local insurance company. So far, it’s great — a bit of a pay cut, but it’s a great work environment and it’s pretty much a new department, so there isn’t really a lot of infrastructure set up yet. I know that, in a lot of ways, that can be quite annoying, but it’s also good in my book: it’s pretty much a blank slate, and we can get things rolling in a halfway decent manner.
The only thing that sucks about it is that the lead developer — my supervisor for these few days — is leaving on Thursday. So far, we’ve hit it off pretty good too, and I’ve only spent one day with his replacement (she’s just hanging around for a couple of days while he’s still working so she can get up to speed; she’ll start full time in May I believe), so I’m not quite sure what to make of her yet.
Once we get up to speed, there’s going to be a lot of pressure to start putting stuff out, but for now it’s a wonderful change of pace from my previous job.
As such, there’s no news on the writing front, and probably won’t be for a while as I adapt to the new environment. Hopefully, once I get better situated there, I’ll be able to focus a little more on my creative ventures. We’ll see though.
Need to get ready to go — only “down side” is I need to wear a tie and a dress shirt to work, so getting ready isn’t quite as quick and easy as it used to be. No biggie…
Catch you on the flip side.
