Back home now...

Yep, so Minnesota was cold. Very cold. It's funny how at first, it doesn't feel that cold, but then the cold just kinda sneaks up on ya and tightens your skin. It's uncomfortable.

Minneapolis was pretty boring. I drove around looking for things to see/do but didn't find much. I did see Lost in Translation, watched a lot of Scrubs episodes, and read through most of the periodicals I brought with me.

Training went very well. Now comes the hard part - supporting the product from 1400 miles away from the main support group. It's going to be a challenge to say the least. I still have much to learn about the product before I'll be really any good at supporting it. And, it looks like I'll be going back to Minnesota in a couple weeks for more training, and actual call center experience.

So, back to the old schedule - 5am to 2pm. It's a schedule I can't stand and I'm going to do everything I can to get on a more normal schedule. 7am to 4pm wouldn't be so bad.

So hooray, back in Seattle, where people don't talk nearly as funny as they do in the midwest. Ya sure, you betcha.
