As of the end of tomorrow i will have completed two whole weeks of my job.
In all honesty, I could tell that for the majority of that time, the company didn't know what to do with me. Everyone else was extremely overloaded with their work and i was sitting at my desk twiddling my thumbs. I bet every one of them would have killed to fill my shoes just to get a break from it all. Ironic how i'm here now complaining about doing nothing.
When doing nothing, i always feel like i need to do something, but i have nothing to do. Do you see my dilemma? Luckily for me though i am so easily amused that i can easily fill my time; and i did. I actually sat down and wrote a story. A story about a handsome young man's struggles with his first few days at a new job which failed to occupy him, and so he wrote a story about a young man. Then when i realized that i had created an infinite loop, i pondered the universe for hours on end. I didn't really come up with anything significant except that if there really were aliens we would probably never know because they've probably been avoiding us all this time just because they know that here on earth we're the fat and mean kids in the playground.
Even though there were a lot of time in the past two weeks that i wasn't doing anything, i actually think i learned a whole lot. Most importantly though would be the 3D software that i was lucky enough to be taught. It's such a powerful software, you can model nearly any object with it; i was having the time of my life creating miniature versions of things around me; desks and monitors. Sadly when i tried to invent my own pokemon i failed miserably. But that's my new goal for the end of the summer so check back and who knows what you'll see. Isn't it great? I'm working at an engineering company and the fruits of my time spent will be a new species of pokemon.
Anyhow, today i finally got switched onto a project that will be in place pretty much until i finish my summer vacation so it seems that i actually will have a steady flow of work coming in. I guess that's good. Just for blogging about being bored, karma is going backhand me across the face. Check back in a couple of weeks to see my bitch about having too much work.
