I forgot to mention, they are paying for 2 monitors, a dock and a keyboard and mouse and will have them couriered to my house so I can work from home.

That’s fucking crazy lol

Enjoy your day everyone ❤️

Oh wow, so how often do you need to work at home and go into the office for? Does it suit you?

Im in office 3 days which is fair I reckon.

Pretty standard these days.

That should be the bare minimum for a job that actively supports WFH. It’s a small expense for them to keep you working even if you’re sick, for example ;) Nice one getting the dock paid for, they’re so expensive and the cheap ones really can be useless

Got assigned my first client today! Also a title change. Now service delivery manager. Fancy title same job as before.

Otherwise there’s a lot to take in! It’s only day 2 so expectations aren’t high, but still. I want to be picking this all up quickly so I can to the actual job.

In a tentative sign that I might finally be kicking this stupid cold/flu/whatever, I just had to stop work and make emergency pikelets. I haven’t felt like eating anything for a week so this is good.

…my garmin watch did give me a heartrate warning while I was doing it so I think a couple more days on go slow is a good idea

It’s always a really good feeling when your appetite returns! Definitely sounds good to ease yourself back in though
