Wed 6th Oct : 1st Day

Guy_badgeIt's a bright sunny Wednesday morning as I get out of the subway at Houston and Broadway. As I pick up my coffee from Cafe Angelique off Broadway the radio is playing the Beatles: "You say good bye, I say hello - hello, hello..."

A little apt sign for the new job I start today at Jolly Roger Advertising Associates Ltd.

I am given three things on my first morning: (a) A huge stack of reading, (b) a name badge that I hope I won't have to wear as long as this guy does and (c) a new BlackBerry.

The BlackBerry, I am told, will be wonderful. Anybody can contacxt me any way (email, sms, phone, IM) any time, any where. I roll up my leg and feel the shackles get attached. Well, it's the first job in 3 years where I get salary!! I'll do anything for that regular pay check.

Except work for free again.
