It was the first day of the end of my life...

It's nicer to say it like this "It was the first day of the rest of my life" but you can look at life like a stream of data and at some unknown point you get EOF.

OK it didn't feel like the end of my life. That makes me sound sad. I was not. In fact I was quite happy. That being said.

I sat through a 1/2 day of NEO which stands for New Employee orientation. The guy on my right was cool. The guy on my left will forever be known as 'prick bastard sales guy with stick up ass' for this reason...

He and I talked about the fact that we were both returning to work here from having left. He went and did a DOT-Gone and I did... DOT-Nothing (see I work at MSFT I keep saying dot this and dot that) I said that I did nothing for 3 years, I told him that i had been burned out. He said "I never got burned out, I always managed my time well"... really? I'm a time management superfreak. this whack is telling me why i got burned out?

Fuck you.

Manged not to pick the right company though didja?

For the record I got burned out because I had a huge task that while we thought it was very important and turned out to be a great product, the management of our particular team didn't think it was important...

The only other thing of note was the fact that being a returning employee was a lot more difficult that being a new employee I didn't get my card key, I didn't have a parking permit, I couldn't sign up for benifits etc. I was a 1/2 employee for about 3 days. I fine now...
