new job
Haha I have gotten so terrible about updating! But now that I get paid for sitting here and pretending to be busy, I guess I have some time to get to it...anyway, started with IBM on Monday, which was a lovely first day because I was in Somers at 8am for paperwork, in Armonk ready to work by 10:30 but no one told my manager to expect me in the morning so I sat in the lobby for 3 hours while they tried to contact him because he was stuck in meetings. :/ Thanks to that the receptionist and I are now biffles. Also I don't have a badge because the machine has been broken for 4 days (I thought this was IBM?!) so I have to buzz in at the gate every morning...
Anyway, can't help but think that my dad picked a terrible week to go to workcamp because while my manager is stuck in meetings all week I have absolutely nothing to do, and no one to explain to me what I will be doing so I can get started. *sigh* I have met the other interns though, and they are all on another team (and computer science majors, lolol) but are really nice. Also decided to bring my lunch in every day, because overpriced cafeteria food isn't the tastiest (and I am saving every penny from this job!!)
So now I sit here all day watching the Tour live stream and refreshing ONTD. Doing nothing is only fun for so long...
Tour update! (no one else cares but I like having these things for future reference :P) Andy still in yellow after Cadel broke his elbow the other day, Cavendish won his third stage but Renshaw was kicked out of the Tour for blocking Farrar as he was leading Cav out. Drama drama...personally I think it is a little harsh to give him the boot (I mean, some guy the other day tried to attack another rider with a front wheel and got away with a small fine!), though it will be interesting seeing how Cav sprints without him...
