Start of the third week of the new job

[matcom]

not once has the boss called me into his office to see "this YouTube chick with the big knockers"

not once have I heard the Fword

not once have I been asked to sign someone else's name on a document (asked daily at the old company, refused every time) :eyes:

I'm LEARNING new technologies and business strategeries ;)

people are INTELLIGENT :applause:

oh and the best part? our HUGH kitchen is fully stocked. Food. stuff for sammies, candy, snacks, fresh fruit, coffee/soda/milk/OJ/lemonade, bagles, even *sniff* - beef jerky! :wow:

free.

life is pretty good.

:hi:

[laylah]

1. good on you!

:toast: congratulations.

[GOPisEvil]

2. No f-bombs?

What kind of hell is that? :D

Sounds like a great place to work. :thumbsup:

[matcom]

3. you know normally I would have said WTF?

but coming from being surrounded by mortgage salesmen, this really IS a nice change :D

[GOPisEvil]

4. The best part is the free food.

That would ROCK if we got free food. Not like our multi-billion dollar company can't afford it, but... :eyes:

[matcom]

6. dude, you know how much WEIGHT i'm gonna gain?

and I don't really care :D

actually, getting paid for my 4 days off in Canada because I told them during the interview I would be away the first week was coolest for me :D

[GOPisEvil]

7. Jeebus...

[matcom]

8. yup

worked 3 days, took the next 4 weekdays off. got my first check last Friday. 80 hours :D

[MrCoffee]

5. so your new boss sucks...what a drag.

[Gormy Cuss]

9. No need to worry - I bet your old boss would hire you back in a New York minute.

Sometimes job transitions are difficult.

[matcom]

10. he calls twice a day to ask where files are located on the network

they all go to voice mail :rofl:

[Gormy Cuss]

13. Ah, that's so sweet.

:rofl:

You could call him back and leave a voicemail telling him that they've all been uploaded to youtube.

[Parche]

11. Job

[ThomCat]

12. Cool. I wish we could all move to better jobs.

:)
I hope it stays sane and stable. Please enjoy it and appreciate it.

[Debi]

14. Beef Jerky??!!

Does Bigfoot work there?

[Kat45]

15. What industry are you in now?

Sounds like a great workplace. I'm starting a new job next week, and I have no idea what to expect. :hi:

[matcom]

18. I'm a Technical Marketing Analyst

pushing data feeds for shopping search engines.

i STILL don't really know what to expect but they are training me from the ground up which is SWEET.

[billyskank]

16. And of course by now you know EXACTLY how the "find" command works in Unix

;)

[Hugin]

20. Maybe even... "man"...

:rofl: :thumbsup:

[supernova]

17. Where did you sign on - SAS?

With all those bennies that's what it sounds like

[Roon]

19. I sign for my Grandfather's credit card purchases

He's arthritic and has a hard time swiping his card and then signing for it. I am always so worried that I am going to get busted. But my Brother (the attorney) says that the only time it would matter is if my Grandfather challenged the signature. So I buy gas, groceries, booze, all using my Grandfathers credit card. And he is very thankful that he doesn't have to use his arthritic hands to do so.

21. Do you honestly expect us to believe you didn't ilke being called in to see the chick on YouTube?

The one with huge knockers? :rofl:

Seriously, though, it's great to hear that the new job's going so well. Bet your stress level is way, way down. :thumbsup:

[In_The_Wind]

Lounge vibes might have helped you just a mite.
