Faking the Funk Since 2002 - June 13th, 2005

First: Michael Jackson found not guilty, eh?

Cool. Whatever.

But the people who have been camping outside the courthouse----the people who are now cheering that he was acquited----THOSE people should be locked up forever.

My first day on the job, and I'm already home early. Today, did mostly administrative stuff, filling out forms, setting up email, etc. And I have a giant stack of things to read, so they cut me early to do just that. Which I am. Doing. I swear.

I'm going to LOVE this job.

I have super responsibilities, my very own shut-the-door office, and I work with some incredibly funny, cool, interesting people. The day-to-day schedule is lax: as long as I do my 40 hours a week and get the work DONE, they don't care much if I roll in at 7 a.m. or 9:30 a.m.

And I get to wear jeans!

Found out today that despite my best efforts, they could SMELL the smoke on me during my interviews. I really thought I had 'em fooled. They're too sharp for that. Still, they hired me.

Oh, and both of my bosses run triathalons. Regularly. So hopefully I'll get a fitness kick-in-the-ass, too.

I'm, like, an adult now. I'm adult-like.
