Working Man

Yesterday was my first day working in the office. I figured out the bus system very easily thanks to the handy dandy map that Natalie had given me before I left school. I got their and finally met Corrie in person she excitedly began to tell me all about Robotics Organizing Committee and Friends of Hawaii Robotics. We talked for a bit and it seems that I will be helping with sponsorship while I am here. After that I was given my own coffee mug and a desk at the front of the office so if any body came into the office I could let Corrie or her partner Lenny know. Corrie gave me lots of reading material about ROC and I quickly read through all that she gave me. While I read through the material Corrie gave me some information about Northrop Grumman Company and told me to write a letter of request to them and I gladly did. After a few revisions and finishing the letter and setting up my computer on the network printers without calling their computer tech guy, I also got assigned some of the IT responsibilities around the office. Also I mentioned to Corrie that I noticed that the website doesn't have any video of any of the robotics competitions and I found that rather odd. No sooner had I mentioned it to her had she pulled up a bunch of discs with video from dozens of robotics competitions and asked me if I would be able to work on putting together a video for the web page for them.

Off to another day!
