I did it! I survived! :) Actually, it really was more of a "non-day" being that it was all spent at new employee orientation, or NEO for short (there are TLAs [three letter acronyms] for everything at MS). It was really weird for me to start actually recognizing that I am a MS employee. There were 115 of us at NEO. 115! The *normal* class size EVERY Monday is 75! Can you believe that?! I met some nice people that I'll prolly never see again. :P
There was a TON of information that they gave to us. I could spend weeks going thru the information on the websites alone! I keep forgetting that this company is 30 years old. Our speaker, Tim, was very engaging and he did a good job of keeping us interested. We even had a few break out sessions which kept things fresh.
Monday night we had dinner out at Mama Melina's. It's a nice little Italian restuarant in the University District of Seattle. I also got to take advantage of one of my MS perks-the Prime card. We got one whole entree for free! Ah yes, the elitism begins. ;)

So in the spirit of the numerous TLA's, what does "TON" stand for? Total Overload of Neurons? Thinking Ouches Now?
... oh, wait, those caps were just for emphasis, not indicative of an acronym. Never mind!
-- RGH (Hey! It's an acronym!)
Is ROB a TLA?
Yes, but it's top secret.
