Yeah so today I took a nap from like 7 to about 11pm so I'm still up. I'll be paying for it tomorrow. So yeah I started my new job at JPMorgan Chase this week. It totally rocks. I am training to be an underwriter for home equity loans. I really am excited about working for Chase because its such a reputable company and there are a lot of opportunities for advancement. The only thing thats not fun is that this position is a contract position. So technically I'm hired on for an undetermined length of time from like 6 months or so. Which means I dont get benefits :( I guess the idea is that its no strings attached for people to see whether or not they want to do this and if the decide not, then they can just quit. But from what the trainer and the hiring manager told me, they are using this program kind of as a pipeline to permanent positions and they want to keep us there as as long as possible. So yeah. I'm gonna try my best to kick ass at this job so they add me permanently as soon as possible. I need my benefits and a higher pay raise. Oh and the coolest thing is that the Chase tower is like .8 miles from me, so I walk there. And there's a mall that I can walk through and there's a skywalk that connects to the chase tower, so I only have to walk like 2.5 blocks in the cold. The rest of the walk is thru the mall. It's awesome. It takes me like 10-15 min to get there depending on how fast I walk. I love it. I dont have to spend money on gas anymore!! yay!! This job is awesome. But yeah I have 3 weeks of training and then I'm gonna start doing real work. But mostly I'm happy for this training program because so far its seems to be really extensive, I'm gonna learn alot here that will help me land a job if needed later on. So thats about it. I'm gonna go try and sleep now. I gotta be up in a few hours. Peace out!
