For the first time in my life, I'm working for a "big" company. This particular "big" company is Adobe Systems, Inc. I must say that I am so far enjoying the challenge of learning big company processes. Coming from a small print shop and then from a one-man shop, it's somewhat overwhelming to have to think of every word or action in terms of how someone else may interpret it. I'll settle in soon enough, though.
One thing that I'm learning is that I haven't found a bad apple yet. I know that there are over 8,000 people working here, and I've yet to meet them all, but these last few weeks have been a steady parade of one pleasant, helpful and sincere person after another. Being a person who thrives on personal interaction, I am very excited to have joined Adobe.
My office is in Times Square, which is pretty cool in and of itself. I must look like an office worker, because I don't get accosted by the tour guide hawkers on the street every day.
I'll report here from time to time on my life in the big company and in the city.
Welcome to the company!

Hey, Paul! Thanks for the props. Will I see you here in Vegas?
