Yes, it’s official – Today, I started my new job as Digital Creative Director for Digital Communications Marketing, Public Affairs at Washington University in St. Louis.
I wanted to wait until after I got the first day out of the way to really say anything about it (mainly because, I wanted to make sure I was not being Punk’d). Hey, in this economic and job-less climate, when an amazing opportunity such as this falls in his lap, a guy’s gotta consider that he may just be a victim of some elaborate hoax. But then I filled out my W-4 and I-9 and pretty much knew I wasn’t being Punk’d – Tax forms are NO JOKE.
First day, as one might expect, was a day of getting acclimated. The introductions are happening more organically than I expected – people popping their head in to say, “Welcome aboard!”. I guess when everyone in the office has Googled and Facebooked you or are now following your Tweets… there’s no longer a need for “formal” introductions. 
But, I have an office (and a KEY!) with a little bit of a view, I have an email address, my new MAC system should arrive early next week and I know where the supply closet is (as well as the coffee station).
Tomorrow… I start working.
