Today I'm fortunate enough to be working from my new company's Sunnyvale office, a mere 15 minutes and 4 train stops from Chez Liz y Andrea. I didn't even need to buy a paper on the way to the train, 15 minutes is only enough time for 1 or 2 sections! I got off the train and walked all of 100 yards to the office but realized that I didn't know which suite it was. Of course the sign outside of the office had a name other than the company name I know (the larger company had bought this company too) so I wandered around outside the offices (they all open onto a courtyard kind of like Melrose Place) frantically calling the one co-worker I have programmed into my cell phone to see if they know where the office is. Getting desperate, I started peering into office windows, when finally I saw a business card with the company name I recognized on it. 2 Nice People were there waiting for me. I was all prepared with my laptop until I realized that I didn't have the dangle and couldn't plug into the network.

The Nice Man got me all set up on someone else's computer so all is well. With any luck I'll work here 2 or more days per week going forward.
