The First Day at the New Gig
I can already tell this is going to be a wicked place to work. It has the feel of a .com company - shorts are allowed, people are smart, technology is bleeding edge. They're using JBuilder 9 and Visual Source Safe, so there's some new tools to learn. My machine isn't nearly as fast as I'd hoped (1.6 GHz, 768 MB), but it'll certainly do. I did get dual monitors, which I have a hard time living without - so I can't complain at all. There were four of us that are starting this week or next - 2 graphics designers and 2 Java developers. We are tasked with building 42 custom websites in the next 6 months. Sweet - I love a good challenge!
