Reflections of week 1 on the new job...

It’s easy to tell that I haven’t had much time to post anything very meaningful over the last few days. That might give you some idea about how my first week on the new job went. For some reason, this is beginning to look more like a Photoblog than a Weblog! Hopefully, once I get my bearings, that will change. But, for the meantime, I’m going to leave you with a couple more first impressions through some more photography…

There is sunlight. Somewhere. But, not in my cube…

The Sprint campus is huge — like a university. Below shows just one small quadrant. During warmer days, I’m sure those chairs are full of people. It is about a mile from my office to my boss’, so I’ve done my fair share of walking this week.

My first week presented me with long periods of boredom, as well as some serious bouts with feeling overwhelmed. All in all, it went pretty well, though. I learned how to schedule meetings, reserve meeting rooms, and get coffee (that’s a story best left for another time). There are processes on top of processes here, but sometimes I feel a great comfort in that — most of the jobs I’ve had throughout my life have been far from places that incororated tried-and-true processes.

I’m very excited to get some of my projects underway and actually start being creative.
