Rhonda,

I just wanted to let you know that my first day with Mosaic went fine. You
are correct it is a piece of cake position. I almost feel guilty getting
paid. Of course I will cash the check :D
My biggest problem is working the doors. I felt like a monkey yesterday, I
couldn't get the side door open. Apparently there is a trick to that side
door. All I could think was "this is ridiculous, I have opposable thumbs,
I can change the oil in my car, so why can't I get this door to open" Some
very nice young man finally let me in and shared with me the trick to opening
that door.
Other than the doors and not really knowing who anyone is, I am doing fine.
Thanks again,

Melissa

funny...!!! I appreciate you letting me know how everything is going! Thanks!

ACT III
so tom walks in this afternoon (tom is the VP, i call him tom, because we're tight like that :) jk )and asks "how's it going?"
me: fabulous, i was able to work that side door all by myself today"
tom laughs : well thats a heck of a victory
me: well ya gotta have goals
tom: actually everyone has trouble with that door. (bill is the
president) bill and i can see them from our offices, we just watch and
laugh. depending on who it is we let them in.
me: oh well then in that case, thanks for letting me in and not making
walk through the bushes.


i told garret that i was able to work the side door today
his response: hey thats actually pretty good, there are times when i've had to walk through the bushes around the building and come through the front door.
