Instant seniority!

I'm just starting in on week 5 of my new job, and another new hire for my section started today! That was a nicely short-lived perch at the very bottom of the totem pole.

I can't believe it's already been five weeks. How's it going? Are you able work on things you had hoped to?

[scrub-jay]

Love it!!

You're just flying up the ranks, aren't you

I really like it so far. I've gotten some diverse and interesting research requests, so I'm getting to bone up on really random stuff. And I've officially been assigned my committee - so ask me again how things are going in about a month when the legislative session starts. That's when things will get crazy!

(The new person also saved me from getting stuck with a committee that I really didn't want, which is excellent.)

Yay on not being the newbie anymore! And your job sounds really interesting, glad to hear you really like it!

Congrats on not being the low man too long! I know what that's like...my last job change put me at the bottom of the seniority pole for over a year. Ugh. Stunk because I had no choice of call (sign up based on seniority) days for a whole year. I was basically assigned days for call and as you can imagine they ended up being holidays, weekends, etc. Yucko. Then a new person was hired and i had a choice (albeit minimal) for about 2 months then they got rid of the sign up for call system entirely. No justice!

Congrats! It's been about a month: how's the committee going? I'm so happy you love your new job!!!

Thanks for asking! The legislative session started yesterday - it's amazing how much more energy there is in the capitol now. I really get down to business in the next couple weeks (this week is mostly pomp and circumstance), so for now I just get to enjoy the show. It's fun.
