I'm loving my new job

I gotta say that people at Eze Castle are really down to earth. I mean that its nice to have colleagues stop by to ask how you are doing not because they have to but cos they genuinely care.
At least I did not experience that at my past job so it's the greatest plus for me.

On the technical side, it's so frustrating being new and learning the ropes all over again. I feel like I am in Primary 1 and need to ask someone for help at every step. Thanks Sonny and Vuong for not making me feel like an idiot when I ask stupid questions.

Hello again

This is apparently one of the few sites that they let me access from work.
Update: I'm back in corporate America...well not so corporate this time.
Working for Financial Software company called Eze Castle in Boston.
Thank you's
Thx Dr. Giessen for the hook up for without the work experience I got from the BCG group, I would not have this job.
Thx Senyange Emma for the tremendous tip and subsequent coaching in order to get this job. I owe you one brother.
Thx to all friends and family for support during job hunting season.

Okay, job hunt is done, Grad school is done..and now real life.
Just got an apartment at Cambridge. apartment searching was a nightmare. Surprisingly, I went with the first apartment I saw. Just like my current job. It was the first offer that I got and turned out to be the best one.

Good:
Great people at work, everyone is cool, collected and really friendly...like genuinely and not fake. I guess I fit in well.
Fresh fruit and healthy snacks in the good kitchen. free.
Bagels on Wed. Beers on Fri...who hoo, bring on the weekend.

Bad:
Downtown Boston i.e. no parking
There are few eating options around the South Station area

So far, it's been a good first week.
Now I look forward to working on really challenging projects.
