End of my first week

Hello all! I think I posted a lot more than I did on the Overnight in NY. Anyway, It's the end of my first week working here in Bristol, CT and I have to say, I love what I am doing. Everyone I work with is extremely nice to me and are very helpful with questions and walking me through booking stuff and handling phone calls from Team PR offices.

Without giving away a lot of what I do, I deal a lot with Coordinating video coming in and Editorial information from reporters in the field. Amlot of you know how frustrated I was and there were some low points at the old job. Here it feels so different.

How so? Well, one thing is that I have to take a mandetory 1 hour break. I can do whatever I want. There is a gameroom that I can use, nice cafeteria that's open VERY late, and a Fitness Center. Now just think about it... guys that love sports, former professional athletes and a free fitness center to work out in. Not only is the eye candy great, the facility is world class.

I am loving what I am doing and have been assigned a certain sport that I will be focused on. I also will be getting seniority over two people soon. I started this week and two people that work in my area were given promotions. They have been here about 5-7 years each, so it's pretty nice that I will have some seniority almost right away.

I am heading to get some food with friends down near where I went to school about a half hour away. Hope you all are having a great week and weekend. Life is going pretty great for me.
