I’ve been at the new job for three months now. Sometimes I still feel like a total newbie, other times I feel like I’ve been at this for much longer. The workload continues intense, which has done a number on the amount of free time I have for activities like blogging. I wish I could say that will change, but it’s more likely that posting about once a week is going to be the new normal around here.
I may occasionally whine a little about the workload or the tidal waves of email coming into my in-box, but don’t let that fool you — this job rocks and I’m having a great time doing it. It’s a rare gift to wake up in the morning and feel this stoked about going to the office.
Saturday we’re heading up to WordCamp, and then Sunday through Wednesday I will be down at 360|Flex. This will be my very first Flex conference, and it looks like it’s going to be a blast.
Unfortunately, it looks like we’re going to bag out on BlogWorldExpo, which is a disappointment. I was looking forward to it, but with everything else going on right now, getting away for it is going to be a little too much to manage.
It fits the pattern of blogs where authors start working for big, fulfilling and uber busy companies – it goes like this: *post*, *post*, *post*, *OMGgotJobAtApple!!111*, *silence*, *post*, *long silence*… (example: http://www.implodr.com/, look at the bottom. 🙂 )
Happy reduced bloggin’! We’re looking forward to post titled: “OMG, 0 mails in inbox! Oh, wait, 14 emails just came in.”
Glad to hear it’s going so well Rachel! REALLY HAPPY for you! 🙂
