First Day At The New Job

Well, it has been a long time since I was "The New Guy" at work, so it was a strange feeling to be known as such. But my first day was actually quite busy, what with working on testing several chassis units that are built within a jackable base. After working on the first one with some assistance, I was able to fly solo on the next two and did pretty well. It makes sense that I am testing these units because you learn so much about them and how they function by working on them directly.

I was surprised to see that I was given a nice desk (I haven't seen so much wood in an office space) and it's all in a 'room with a view' too. I've already started doing some work in AutoCAD, but I've basically been familiarizing myself with the layout of the workspace and the templates in use.

It's kind of neat at this place, and the workers on the assembly floor remind me of the guys at Motortronics in the medium voltage department. They are a meatball group of guys (que the theme song for the "Black Sheep Squadron" in the background), but when it's time to get things done, they do a great job.

I'll probably write an update in a week or so...
