Job Update

Hi friends!

Well, this is my second day on the job, and while it is still a little overwhelming, I am getting very excited about all the learning opportunities! It seems a bit part of my job description involves conducting research and figuring out methodologies and all that stuff that I intentionally avoided during college and grad school for the mere fact that it didn't interest me and I just didn't understand it. So yesterday I was really freaking out thinking that they had definitely hired the wrong girl for the job, but today I found out that my counterpart had the same concerns that I did when she started because she was a journalism major, and her writing skills, much like mine, are much stronger than her research skills. So I'm good! (so far).

Anyway, I'm loving this being employed thing...I found out yesterday that I can be reimbursed up to $1000/year for a gym membership! (that is one of the most exciting perks so far, besides the fact that last night I got to sail around New York Harbor on a yacht).

Anyway, gonna scarf down my lunch and get ready for a 2:00 meeting...yeah, I have a 2:00 meeting. Because I'm an employed adult.

Good bye!

hahaha, well I am glad it is going so well. I would love some perks! The only perk we get here is that if you tick me off and if I were evil enough to do it I could change your name or screw up your earnings record. Mwahahahahaha (evil laugh). kidding--I would never never do that! Listen up---never never do that---listen closely if you are OIG---NEVER do that! ;)
