Post numero uno de 2011.

So, after a lovely two weeks of vacation, I'm back in Seattle for team training with all of the other fabulous folk that do my job in other parts of the country. Before I tell you about that, I do want to say that I'm quite excited to have finished my first real adult vacation time- like, when you still get paid when you take time off...and you don't have to retake a drug test or get re-hired or any other of that bullshit. Yay job!

So it's been quite cool hanging with my co-workers. There is such a variety of people. The people that do my job include all ages, moms, dads, grandpas- it's pretty neat. I've been talking with a lot of people I've never really talked to before. There are a little less than 20 of us, so it's pretty neat to actually know everyone that does your job. I like being a part of a smaller company. Also, I like having someone to talk to, because when I'm in the bean, my co-workers are all at least 300 miles away. It's cool to be reminded- hey, I'm not all alone.

I won an award for being good at my job. I was thrilled. Needless to say, I wasn't expecting it, especially since I haven't even hit the 6 month mark yet. Huzzah!

This trip, I haven't seen anything more than the office and my hotel, so not too much to write home about there. In one week, I'm off to the west....
