In January I'm going to start a brand new job, yay! :D:D:D

The contract is pretty fabulous (tempo indeterminato, baby!) even tho the pay is still kinda miserable...I'm sure I'll miss being able to read books at work, but well...at least - hopefully - I'll have something to do!! \o/ \o/ \o ( Read more... )

I voted "who are you and what are you doing on my flist".... :D

I'm glad to see "yes" is winning because I love to see what other people are reading.

Also - congrats on the new job!!! There is nothing worse than being bored at work because it makes the time go soooo slowly. I shall keep my fingers crossed that the new job will be lovely and interesting.

Considering how often I post I'm amazed that people still remember (or care) about me... ;))

Me too! There are tons of good books I discovered via friends' recs!

Thanks! I hope things will be good...I'm a bit worried about the fact that basically all my co-workers (and boss) will be women...I've always worked with men (with very few exceptions) and I'm not used to interact with women...*ponders*

Anyway, at least I'll have something to do! :-)

I know! It's so hard to find the time to post and when you do have the time, you never know what to post about. I don't think you have to worry about anyone not caring, though :).

I work with women mostly and I find it an odd thing. If you can get a good group of women, it can be a very good working environment. At the same time, I find that women can be *really* bitchy and sometimes it feels like it's hard to break into the "group". It might take some getting used to but I am sure you will be fine and will quickly find your way. They will love you :).

Exactly!

Yeah, I'm a bit afraid of the "bitchy" part...my tolerance level is not as high as once was...now I have very low tolerance for bullshit and idiocy... *sigh*
