A few weeks ago, I had a little chat with my new (and might I add, fabulous!! new boss) and told him that I what I really wanted was a nice challenge to sink my teeth into. I told him that the work that I had being doing was't using my skill set to the best advantage of either my career or the company. I told him that I wanted to work with people that I hadn't worked with before. Or in a very long time at least. A specific group of people that I had been wishing to work with, cause their projects are interesting and challenging and cool. Maybe not cool to you, but cool to me. Cause I am a geek.
So now .... oh the now. Now I have new. New team, new co-workers, new boss. New project, new challenge, new obstacles, new learning. And it is either going to be a great experience that has the potential to make my career (seriously ... if this goes well, my reputation will be solid), or I am going to fall flat on my face. I don't think it will be the second one, though, no matter how much it sometimes feels like it will be. The simple truth of the matter is that I am pretty good at what I do. So as long as I remember to keep asking questions, I should be ok.
I will, however, be veeerrrrryyyy busy for a while. Busy like I may never have been at work before. But, like I said, I wanted a challenge.
I done got one.

"The simple truth of the matter is that I am pretty good at what I do."
