Austin/Dallas: Day 9

I set the alarm clock in my room for 7 am. The alarm went off, I got up, and booted up my computer. The computers clock said 6 am. ugh! I laid back down for a half hour, then got up and set up the ironing board. I ironed some shirts, took a shower, and headed down to breakfast. As I was finishing breakfast Ben came down and was ready to go to the office.

I got the grand tour of the Dallas office and was introduced to pretty much everyone there. Shortly there after the training session began. Around 12:30 we had pizza for lunch. Ben, Eddie, and I walked over to CVS to try to find something vegan for Ben to eat. Ben and Eddie ended up getting food from Quiznos. The thermometer at the bank on the corner said it was 91 degree.

The afternoon training session was short, but the rest of the afternoon was spent on a very productive conference call. It was clear that we as a team have a lot of work ahead of us in the next few months. Most of which is very exciting… well at least to me.

After work a group of us Jaduka folks went to a Mexican joint for dinner. After dinner I called Jassen to see if he had time to swing by the hotel for a few drinks. Ben, Jassen, Roland, and I sat in the hotel bar and had a few drinks till close to midnight. It was good to see Jassen again. I hadn’t seen him since my bachelor party about three and half years ago.
