Wasabi peeps. Sorry for the lack of posts recently. I went back to work on Tuesday of last week and I've been working almost full time (9 to 4:30) every day since then. It's kinda nice because I'll be earning more money, but it's rough waking up so early, especially since before I went back to work, I was going to sleep at the time I have to get up now. It's all good though, since we haven't been open to the general public, it's just been the Team Leaders and a few other staff working. We just kinda hang out all day while working on our projects, then go to lunch for some nerdy conversation, then back to work and meetings. It's a pretty sweet deal. Tomorrow is the day we open up the 4th floor lab, so finally I don't have to deal with folks jiggling the locked doornobs and tapping on the glass doors for me to open up.
One of the cooler aspects of going back to work is that since I'm now a Team Leader, I get to make the work schedule. Not only that, today I got to review applications from people interested in working here and pick ones I thought might be promising. I might even get to sit in on their interviews too. The interviewing begins tomorrow, so hopefull I will. Sounds like fun.
Every day now the other 3 team leaders, our two managers, and I have meetings. So many meetings, I know. It's kinda weird but I'm starting to enjoy all these meetings, especially since I sit at the desk all day and my neck starts to really hurt after a while. Sitting at the desk has it's perks though. Since we're not officially open yet, I can listen to music and eat (a little) food at the desk. Needless to say, I listen to dnb all day. :) Thank god for Shoutcast and a ton of cds!
Well, I'm sure I had more to say, but I don't feel like typing anymore. later

You should only accept applications from super cool and super cute asian chicks. Alvarado-san Yokatta! (^_^)v
I've been trying (and was sort of told to anyway), but it's hard to tell which ones are female with all the foreign names, and you can't see them until they come in to interview, and only the people with the right qualifications get interviews, so it's tough.
The job sounds pretty rad! Haha I wish I could sit in on interviews... you know it'll just make the interviewees that much more nervous. They'll be thinking, "Oh lord, who is that guy? Maybe he's the bosses, boss! *Wiping beads of sweat from forehead*"
P.S.
I resent that "LiveJournal, eww." comment!
Bastard. haha
haha yeah, it was pretty sweet. you'll hear more about it in my next post which I'm about to write, but by the time you see this it'll already be there.
as for the livejournal thing, you really need to get off that, especially since you have your own hosting already. get with the program man! :)
