First 2 weeks....

Well my first 2 weeks on my new job are behind me. I am definitely in a learning type of mode. There's a lot to take in but my boss is great. She is very patient and, so far, isn't to bothered that she has to repeat instructions to me. The people are great and a fun place to work.

Last week I was going to visit the San Francisco office so that I can meet the employees there. The trip would have been great if I didn't get lost. I googled a map and thought I was set.......not. The map was accurate to an extent. I missed one turn and got put way of sync. San Francisco is not an easy place to maneuver. There are many one way streets as I found out the hard way. I turned on a street trying to get back to a point where I knew was correct and ended up on a one way street going the other way. I tried to back up to get out, but the traffic behind me wouldn't let me get in and the traffic that was coming towards me let me know that I may have made a mistake turning onto this road and that maybe I should go back to grammar school and learn how to read. Oh well, and I know this, next time bring a map. It is way to easy to rely on technology to guide you through life.
