The first day of work in India is about to come to an end. For those not in the know, TWU stands for ThoughtWorks University, the training program I’m attending to start my job with a bang. They sent us to India, and now we’re ready to work…well, kinda.<\/p>\n
To be honest, we’re all a little too jetlagged to get any real work done, but still we’ve been in the office all day. I think the trainers want us to get de-lagged as quickly as possible. Thus, we’ve been sent to the office to do “work,” though we don’t have any assignments as of yet. Needless to say, it’s been a slow day of surfing, installing, and getting to know the new coworkers.<\/p>\n
Everybody<\/strong> here is awesome. Literally. I’m still quite surprised by this. Everybody I’ve met has been awesome, smart, and on their A Game, jet lag or no. We’ve connected with the crews from the UK (~7-8 people), Australia (1), and, of course, India (10-15). I can’t wait to get to work…isn’t that lame?<\/p>\n People have been really genuinely interested in my HCI rants, which is positive. I hope to influence a lot of the work I do with others via my User Centeredness…I’ll let you know how that goes.<\/p>\n Anyway, the workday seems to be ending, so I think I’ll head out.
