First Day 

Work Monitor
My very first day in my new job as a Multimedia Developer and the first thing that blows my mind is my workstation.

I’m presented with this and this. Having a total workplace of 40 inches isn’t too bad for a Univeristy graduate.

Workload so far seems to be fairly full-on with deadlines already set so I’ve got loads of work to keep me busy. The best thing is I’ll eventually be moving into video production and that’s where the real excitement begins for me.

I also quit my old job and maaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaan did that feel good. I compared the experience to Andy Defresne from The Shawshank Remdemption “crawling to freedom through five-hundred yards [or five years in my case] of shit smelling foulness you couldn’t even imagine”. I even planned to take a photo of myself, in the rain from above, parallelling that symbolic cinematic moment. It was a beautiful feeling.

    Welcome back online. I’m looking around for the bouncer because I don’t usually get into classy looking joints like this one! Very swish indeed, nice work. However, my Toxic readers will want a preview pane on the comments box now. Curse you! The Shawshank Redemption comparison was apt, though. But just sit back and soak up the adoration…at least until you go back to labouring over the other Hooverdust annexes.
