We’re having a blizzard in Denver today. The city will get up to 18 inches of snow while the foothills and mountain are expecting at least two feet. It has been very dry here so the moisture is greatly appreciated. Most flights are cancelled and several highways are closed due to accidents.
I’m working from home today. I’ll called the IT group early this morning to get a temporary remote access password. I’ve been taking required online classes – Code of Conduct, Discrimination and Harassment in the Workplace and Proprietary Information and Records Management. I’m bored. I really haven’t started the job. I’m due to get a mentor on Monday. I have been given an account assignment but my manager could not explain what accounts are in the vertical. That’s not a good sign. Hopefully, my mentor will get me on track.
I’m not impressed with my manager so far. She’s seems a little scatter brained. I don’t know how she got to the director level. She scheduled a team meeting for the wrong time, forgot to approve my permanent remote access, can’t tell me if the company will pay for a second line for business calls, published the wrong phone number for me on the organization chart, and got one of my fellow new hires first name wrong. Let’s hope things improve going forward.

Maybe you’ll have her job soon?
