We experienced some minor excitment at work when a mouse (or is it a small rat?) scurried across the floor. Poor little guy looked so scared I felt sorry for him. But, within minutes site services showed up, caught him and took him away. I couldn’t believe how fast they arrived… and, no, the little guy wasn’t in my office.

That’s the address where you’ll find me these days. The workload is already heavy after just over two weeks on the job. So many new things to learn coupled with doing marketing in a completely new geography. Fun, fun.
Here’s a photo of my new office. I share an area with three other people, so it can get loud, especially when everyone is on the phone. I’m getting better at tuning them out… but I still have a long ways to go.
And, this the outside of my building…
Things are getting too loud over on my side of the building with all the new people moving in. David’s new industrial-strength headphones help dampen the noise a bit.

Spent the day at Intel “headquarters” today in Santa Clara at the Robert Noyce Building. I borrowed someone’s office that was just to the right of the second balcony… I kept spacing out looking out the window.

We went to Dave & Buster’s in Milpitas for a team-building activity today. James mixed alcohol and firearms.
And, he got a bit belligerent.
Want to go out back?
Went to the Apple Worldwide Developer Conference today when they announced their architecture switch to Intel-based processors. Yeah!

I don’t know what to make of this. Obnoxious doesn’t quite define what I saw today in the breakroom. I’m not even sure extra obnoxious does.
Robert’s “woody” shirt makes you look at it, all the while making you want to look away. You get stuck somewhere in the middle not knowing what to do.
I’ll be happy if I never see this shirt again.
Too much to take in all at once
James put on his “Agency Glasses” after a difficult work request landed on his desk from Allison. Now he can charge 10x for the same job… he’s requesting 100K for some simple Perl scripting to help with search & replace tasks.

After a long afternoon of presentations during our NYC trip, Matt pours himself a frosty cold beverage.

Oops… that box could’ve used a bit more tape. Stace curses Ingram Micro, again.
It’s almost hard to belive this is the supplimentary shipping center for such a large company’s e-commerce business.
