My first day...!

ok so i was escorted by a marching band on the front steps of the office...but...i didn't go in right away..why?? because i was ten minutes early "_ ....lol...so i waited in the car ..went to buy a bottle of water ..came back ..and then went in finally ...to be received by no one...but thank God people were moving about...i waited for someone to appear or ask...a human did ask why i was there and then went away.. then finally the receptionist showed up called someone about me then chatted with me a while...
...so this client service guy come up introduces himself and then takes me upstairs to introduce the creative team The names of whom i have forgotten of course (as i am bad with names)...and all the basic hello hi followed... and so i sit down on my desk which is not comfortable but i will live...and the chair which need to be pushed up every 2 hrs or so is comfortable ... so nothing drastic happens apart from a general meeting with the gm and another team member ...she then takes me to the other departments that Adil missed out (again forgetting the finance and account..which i didn't even remind her that id like to see because i didn't ;))...
..she then wasted allot of her time with me and explained how things work and what campaigns are going on an yada yada and all what i ll be doing etc... and then asks me to chill since the coming days were very hectic....
...me waiting for some action didn't say anything because i thought i should better shut up on the first day ;)...not knowing of course what the coming days would be like...and so my journey begins
...till lunch pure boredom since i had nothing to do...chatted with an old colleague who had been working here for a yr now...though we were not on very friendly terms ever but still he was polite enough to come over and as if i needed anything and how things were en that I've lost weight :D :D...
...my neighbor will probably get tired of me soon since he is the one i am teamed up with and i asked him (though i don't totally agree) but many questions of how things worked around here and what software en technical stuff (nothing personal =P) ...
...lunch time was hard to pass... the bell boy came over to ask if i wanted anything and i didn't feel like interrogating him on what is available and what not so i told him i don't need anything...and so i remained empty stomach all day :(...the cappuccino did wonders warna pata nai kya hota ;).... so after lunch finally Adil thought i was miserable enough so he gave me a little work to do and i was all happy....:D...so i started working and at 5:30pm exact ;)...i left my chair...a benefit some say only the newbie can afford and that too for the few starting days...:)...lets see now what the future holds for me...looking forward for better experiences...and some lunch in the lunch time ;)...
...and oh yea how could i forget...the ladies wash room .lolzzz....its soooooooooooooooo pink...yuck....all mushy and stupid girlie really...and you have to really push the door to lock it...i thought i had locked my self in and will now face embarrassment on my very first day until i realized i was turning the nob in the wrong direction ...*blushes*...
...and yea not a single good looking soul so far ..ppppffffftttt...i always have bad luck when it comes to having a good looking company around ;)...

....my first day at work :)
