Musings of Lanna Lee MaheuxIn which I talk about stuff and stuffThursday, June 19, 2008New Job thoughts and other thingsSo, I am almost at the end of the fourth week at my new job. Yes, I got a new job! (If you follow me on twitter (look to the left), you probably already know this.) I am working as a Jr. Programmer/Analyst at a marketing research firm in Kennebunkport. Well, I am working for Aquent, a staffing agency for marketing companies, and my assignment is a temp-to-permanent. And I want to tell you a secret: I love it! Love it! I still haven't figured out everything I will be doing, but the things I have been doing, learning Wincross, coding for both SPSS and Wincross, creating tons of crosstabulation tables (working on a project that had 241 tables for one version of the survey and 344 tables for the other version.) It's challenging, fun, and it's the kind of work I love, the kind with a finish point. When I complete a project, I can just move to the next one. Well, the way it will work, when I get totally up to speed, is that I will have many projects going at the same time. That project I have been working on, wow, it has been very hard, and frankly, probably should have gone to one of the more experienced programmers. However, it fell through the cracks and it wasn't on anyone's production schedule, so I was asked to pick it up. I am so glad I got to do it. Because now, any other project will seem easy in comparison! Oh, the picture above is from this February's Boskone. I brought my art to sell and I sold 2 pictures! (I realized I didn't mention it on the blog earlier.) (And I wanted to use a picture.) (So now I have.) (times two.) How are you doing, internet?
