Yes, ladies and gents, I am now a working woman! Today was my first day working for BottinoGrund Architects and I'm having fun. I get my own nice little corner, complete reign over the printers and scanner and fax machine and a logitech wireless mouse! My bosses are really funny and I get to wear jeans and sneakers to work if I want. Today, they even bought me lunch (wow).
It felt very strange today going into Manhattan all on my lonesome. I'm usually following someone around, or with a group of people, but for the first time, I was in the big city all on my lonesome. Sure I was in Pittsburgh for two years all on my lonesome, but Pittsburgh is really nothing compared to NY. NY is...cold in comparison. No one smiles, no one watches out for each other. I think if someone were to faint in the subway, the only people that would bend over to check are the ones checking your wallet for money. The commuting is...hostile.
On a lighter, happier note, I got hired by HolzmanMoss as well. Three for me, mwahaha. I left them a message that I already got a job, but that feels sort of like a jerk thing to do, so I'm going to call them again tomorrow and apologize. I'm really bad at telling people no. I almost had a moment of hope when Nestor (my boss) said that he should give HolzmanMoss a call and say haha, too late, but then, he was just joking. Ah well, guess I'll have to do it myself...
