Just got home from the first day of "work". Mostly it was listening to presentations, listening to HR telling us all kinds of stuff, and setting up machines and installing software. I havent been able to log in to the network yet, though ... Turns out that my account is currently disabled, most likely because it is currently being renamed (because I was a vendor for the past few months I already had an account).

 

Oh, and in case you're wondering (I doubt you are :-P) I didn't have to take the bus or a Microsoft Connector, because another new employee came to pick me up. Turns out we both did a few internships in Redmond, and he arrived over the weekend. We met up yesterday for a few drinks, as well, which was pretty cool.

 

There's nothing much else to tell, really. The day was okay, a little bit boring at times, but I'm also excited to start with the new job. Tomorrow and the rest of the week should be more interesting, as soon I get access to the network and get everything set up.
