Started Monday. Mrs. Big Time now. I like it so far. I had to boot my co-worker in the arse to go around and introduce me to everyone - Day 2. One chick wouldn't shake my hand till I explained who I was and said my name to her 2 times. What a strange bird. First impressions are everything and she didn't make a good one for me. Oh well. There's one in every crowd. I have a nice office space. Kind of a loft area all by itself. We (the whole company is invited) are going to the Padres game on Thursday for lunch and a ball game. Kind of cool. Meet everyone informally.
My boss just said they were going to put out a press release about me. Should be interesting to see what kind of reaction I get out there. All Positive I am sure. Some snickering will be heard in the distance. That's just jealous snickering. Go for it I say. I have the run of the place. I have to set up files, do all the groovy stuff when it comes to running a dept. all by myself. Kind of like jumping off a cliff. Oh I bet you were wondering when i would get around to referencing my picture of choice. Yes, Gay Head Cliffs as they used to be called. Now with so many negative connotations, I don't think they call it 'Gay Head' anymore. Oh well. they are beautiful clay cliffs on the very tip of Martha's Vineyard Island. To stand on the top of them and look out over the ocean and think back to when this was a whaling village is a trip in the way back machine. there isn't a part of Martha's Vineyard I don't love. It's all a perfect picture postcard. Every time you turn around, you see something that takes your breath away. Anyway, I am jumping off to a new venture and hopefully, I can swim when I hit the ocean. I will let you know. (Or will you be at the bottom to catch me?)
