Starting a new job is exciting, and a bit unnerving. After finding your desk, the kitchen, the bathroom, and other various basics, you also realize that you are going to start to get to know some folks and a business very well. Or you hope to do so.
Today is my first day at a blogging platform company, Six Apart. I never would have guessed 1, 2, or 5 years ago that I would be here, when I first heard about the company. Life is so unpredictable.
I'll be doing business development and strategy, mainly for Typepad (which powers my fascinating blog) and also for Vox, etc.
Good news of the day:
Lots of exciting things around the corner for my job and the product.
People I know and like are here (familiar faces are good).
Get to commute in with Fredo.
The bad news of the day:
Parking is more expensive than gas.
Citizen Cake opened a kiosk on the same city block as the office.
Get to commute in with Fredo.
Disorienting:
Cubicles.
Lots of people I don't know.
Client-based email (blach).
