Monday morning at the new job

[cjsmith]

Signed forms, have temporary desk (cubes being built out now for tomorrow), received card key, attended first meeting, am now browsing lots of overview material on the design and implementation of the product. Previous entry is public now.

I'm actually getting excited. Usually I'm just feeling "OK, here's a job, hop to it." Now I'm feeling "Hey, cool and fun!" It's eerie. I hope it lasts. :-)

I treasure those moments when life is again full of crunchy new possibilities. May you bypass the cruft and grunge to hit the Nirvana of flow. :-)

So where is this place? Relatively close to home, I hope?

Real Startups Don't Have Cubes...Ready

[psi-star-psi.livejournal.com]

I'm certain you recall the story of the freak who showed up at Spice on a Monday morning about 10am, saw that his workstation was set up and his cube was supplied, and immediately resigned. "You all are too organized to be a real start-up," or similar nonsense. I'd make fun of him being named for a plant, but that's just crass. Deserved, maybe, but crass.

It's good to see that you are working for a real start-up!

No big bonus for me. :-(

I just got email from our applicant tracking system saying that you've withdrawn your application. I guess I won't be able to spend those mega bonus bucks.

Congratulations on the new job. When are you going to be able to tell us who they are and what they do?

Congrats. I heard a bit about the whole process from rfrench who basically stood us up for lunch because he was on the cell phone with some person from CA about some decision she had to make.

As I told Rob, I've got a little experience in some of the stuff you may be doing, so feel free to call/write & pick my brain or even just ask stupid stuff.

Congratulations! I hope that "new" job feeling lasts a very long time!
