Stepping into a new world

Two years ago, I stepped into Citi on Friday the thirteen.
Feeling super excited about my new job :)

Two years later, I left Citi on Friday the thirteen.
Left with mixed feelings.
Glad that I'll be doing something different; but at the same time, feeling uneasy about stepping out of my comfort zone.

Weekends ended quickly.
And came 16 May.
Woke up at 6:40am.
Said hello to my new life as a sardine.

I regretted not taking a break.
My inner self cannot adjust to the new environment.

Had a team meeting yesterday.
As I don't understand a single thing, I let my mind wander and these thoughts came to me:
  • Why am I in this office instead?
  • What's happening in Citi at this very minute?
  • Why am I surrounded by people whom I don't know?
Seems scary huh?
One should really take time off.

Location wise, I'm seated between 2 AVPs, the one on my right being my boss.
Glad that his philosophy is: "As long as you can produce results, he's okay with flexible timing."
Heard that from my mentor though.

Am in a team of 3; nice and cosy.
Workload seems okay on my first day, let's pray that will be the case for the many years to come. HAHAHA

p.s. I can view cable cars from my office :)
