Today was my first day of work (2nd job)...

we were supposed to be 5 in our batch but the other one i think backed out... so my new officemates/batchmates (for the next 2 years) are just cogie, chipper and froi...cogie and chipper are schoolmates... so naturally they're already close friends... but it was okay because they're both friendly not to mention loud (hehe) which made our lecture more enjoyable... froi i think is the smart one (though.. i couldn't really tell yet cause we haven't started programming.. but i think he's the one who has the most VB hands-on experience among the 4 of us)

we started at around 8:30 am... first we were briefed with their company policies/regulations etc.. then the signing of our contract (2 years uh-oh lolz).. then we started our training with VB fundamentals... our lecturer (ate) chuck was .... cool! no other word can best describe her... hehe... she really is cool!.. i learned a lot actually... (recalling some VB stuff that i already forgot, etc) and that was just our first day!.. i'm actually getting excited because i don't think i'll regret working for Radix... they were so organized ... i believe everything (from our day 1 at work to i think the next 6 months) are already planned... they even provided us notebooks and pens (LOL YeY! free stuff haha) so that we could note down stuff from ate chuck's lecture... before we knew it the day was over!... time really flies when your having fun ^_^ (learning IS fun!!)

i remembered my first day at Infostructure.. Irvie (my classmate and x-officemate) and I were so bored... we were so happy when we were given something to do (lol).. hell i think for 3 months we practically did nothing lolz ... (but i did install mirc there, yahoo msgr, surfed the net etc.. ) it was just after 3 months ( i think) that we were deployed to clients... well of course, there were "trainings" conducted but they didn't really follow the schedule (or the trainor isn't present/ on client blah²..) so most of the times we were just entertaining ourselves... urging the time to move faster ..

at radix.. i could tell (even just on my first day) that they're not gonna waste their resources on us just to sit and do nothing... we're actually gonna learn a LOT from the trainings and project implementation... and they're gonna provide us with all the necessary stuff we need in order to be the best programmer we could possibly be... *YeHeY!!!!* i'm so pleased with myself.. LOL! (i filled up 4 pages of my new notebook with VB notes hahaha)

later guys ^_^
