Today was my first day at the new company. For the first time, I felt extremely Working Girl as I took the train into the CBD and walked to the new office, passing by other corporate-looking types in their pants and shirts and office suits. The good thing about my new company is that the dress code is still smart casual, and I can get away with wearing jeans to work. But maybe not in the first week of work. Gots to keep up a professional image for a while, 'yo.
Anyhoo, the first day went by pretty well. Highlights of the day were:
- Tinkering around with my new laptop
- Locking myself out of the system, and having to call Europe to reset the passwords (I stupidly forgot to write down the new password after setting it)
- Attending my first ever team meeting, where the finance guy showed what looked like a chart of gibberish numbers to me
- Having a nice lunch at a little cafe
- Discovering the office pantry stocked booze in its fridge

Raffles Place? Which building? Oh...Congrats on your new job! Jia you! =)
Can wear jeans and booze in the office pantry? Heaven!
Li-er: Thanks! And no, not Raffles Place,I'm closer to the Tanjong Pagar side. :)
Tym: Yep, although I don't think it would be wise to break out the booze so early on in my career!
