I like how orientation dedicated a large part of the week to getting to know other people in the office. Becoming closer with the full-timers here before we dove into learning made the process more comfortable. I would have been nervous asking a stranger a question, but no one was a stranger by the time I had a question. This is a small office but I feel like I was only given the chance to get to know people in my department. I would have liked to have gotten the chance to get to know everyone so that I know the persons name that I am standing next to at the water cooler. Also, I didn't start learning until I started doing. I want to be fully immersed in what happens so I can learn more about what we do.

I've learned a lot about the people I'm working with, as well. Ann has battle scars everywhere and a story for each, Kinsey has a remarkable ability to beat everyone at everything, and Greg has a great taste in music. Puja can sleep more than anyone I know and yet is still constantly tired. Everyone I work with is great and I'm glad we've bonded because that makes this experience even better!
