First day of work

Aiya... I barely had two hours of sleep last night because I took a giant 3-4 hour nap during the night. I don't think I fell asleep until ~4am and I had to wake up at like 6am. Feeling all groggy, I managed to get myself ready and caught the 159 without problems. I think I'm going to dread the daily morning commute. The 159 takes like 20 minutes to get through the Mary Hill Bypass because of the insane amount of traffic; I can probably walk through it faster than the bus.

Once I got to PBC I got my ID and had a chat with Rene about what I will be doing. Apparently my task of the day was to read a HUGE binder of stuff. So that's what I did for an hour while waiting for my computer and phone to arrive. Guess what? The lady was setting up MY computer in the cubicle NEXT to me! And she was setting up the wrong computer as well! After that mess got sorted out I got introduced to Kyle and I had to do some data entry for him--fun eh? It was especially fun because he forgot to say that I was only supposed to enter the 2006 data :). Afterward I had the opportunity to learn how to use vlookup in Excel. I had to pull data from an Access database and match them up with the appropriate entries in an Excel spreadsheet. Armed with only Google and Microsoft Help, I think I did quite well, as in almost figuring out the whole thing by myself. Rene offered to give me a ride when he leaves but I felt like going so I left--probably should have waited and did some Actex, I would've got home at the same time.
