Both my parents are first dosed! Pfizer :)

My new work is going good so far. It's challenging enough to be interesting, easy enough to feel i'm doing good work. But i'm only in the first few week, I hope I don't loose steam and motivation.

I remember my first (an only) office job at a bank back in university, I felt terrible because I as so INCOMPETENT. With time, i realize i was a dumb shit, but also that noone set any clear expectations or had time to show me how things are done and i was stuck in a loop of them being frustrated with my work, me feeling i'm not doing it right but also not knowing how to fix it. My project was an afterthought and people were already busy with their own stuff. And my project was an anomaly, where I was the only person responsible for it, wedged in between 2 departments in the banking world.

Weather is turning in Montreal, we had a few really nice days already. So nice I inadvertently caught a mini sunburn. Can't wait for more park hangouts and chalets!

Off to some mid-day errands to the library and hardware store, it's a glorious day. I'll eat a popsicle on the way :)
