Day 1 at the new job went very well! I met a LOT of new people, was told a lot of useful information, and will probably forget half of the names and info when I walk in the door this morning. I do have a good grasp on what my roles and responsibilities will be, and have even been assigned to some programs already. They're wasting no time getting me up and running, and that's exactly what I expected.

Today will include a few more meetings with people I will be working with in my new role, as well as move-in to my office. Not a cubicle, but an actual office with a door and key. It even has windows so the plants can have actual sunlight! I'll ignore the rumors that we may be moving to a different building in the near-future and will just enjoy the space for as long as I can.
