Wish me luck

Well, everyone, i'm about to embark upon a new mission in life, working for THE MAN. Student Financial Services. Doing well while doing good though, the teams i'll be working for custom-design loan programs for colleges and K-12 schools so that the schools can actually offer low-risk and low-interest rate loans to their students at a 98% acceptance rate. That's really hard for schools to find.... so that's what i'll be doing.

I was nervous yesterday thinking about how the first day would go. But this company talks about how they are proud of their "ability to attract and retain the brightest minds," and they hire new people all the time because they are growing so quickly. They're used to helping people acclimate to a new work climate. Once i realized this, i felt a lot better. I'm going to a company that is a good company to work for, and all of my interactions with people there (via email, phone, and in person) have been exceptionally comfortable and friendly. This is positive.

Does it sound like i'm trying to psyche myself up because i'm still nervous? Oh? That's because i am.

By the way, i'm glad you all enjoyed the picture. There will be more forthcoming :)
