First Day
So everyone has been asking how my first day went and it went well, although I didn’t really do much. Most of this week is going to be spent being induced [sic], setting everything up and generally getting to grips with the system. That said I’ve already got my first bug to fix and my first deadline to fix it by. I’m also going to be remembered by the CTO as they’ve evicted her from her desk so I can sit with the rest of the tech team. Always good to make and impression :S
After having worked for a leviathan bank for what seems like forever working for a smaller company is quite different. For example, if I need to speak to desktop support I can just throw something at them as they’re no more than 10 meters away ![]()
Today I’ve started the commute proper, resplendent with its early morning alarm (which I was awake before). Thankfully it’s still light when I leave the house as it’s the commuting back and forth in darkness and spending the daylight hours in the office that really saps the soul.




Lets just hope the CTO doesn’t bear grudges when it comes to pay review time?
Hey I’m just glad to hear it went well - let me know if you want some apropriately branded stress balls to throw.

But how do you blame the problem on the technical support team (in Sydney) when they are in fact within earshot?
