Survived First Day of Work. Tired.
So I survived my first full day of work. Though I spent most of the time reading the Internal documentation on the projects, I still felt like I over used my brain for the entire day.
One thing about returning to a full-time job is that I am not working alone anymore. And I get asked questions from time to time, which also helps sharpening my mind a little more. Being able to bounce ideas off of other is an important learning process, especially I’ve hit a certain plateau in terms of programming techniques. I needed to be with other programmers and artists to move to the next level.
Another advantage is I am forced to walk to take public transit (which is slightly cheaper than driving to work). I have to walk 15 minutes to and from the Caltrain station, which is just like when I lived in NYC. This will definitely help reduce some of that fatherly fat around my belly.
So the week will progress on with meetings after meetings in handing off workload to me to start implementation. Good times.

Haha, first days of work have a love/hate relationship with me! Usually I feel like high because of the many people you meet, but on the other hand I totally exhausted and usually manage to bring myself in embarrassing situations…

Wow….I can totally tell you are doing full time, base on the update speed of your blog!

@Sebastian: Yes, meeting people can be an exciting adventure. But that “high” usually becomes too much and tires me out.
@yunglo: Yeah, I know. But also keep in mind “work life” isn’t really all that exciting especially when I can’t really talk about what I do right now since the company is still in the “stealth mode” until later this year (fingers crossed). I am really getting a little too old for “start up” kind of companies….
