I've had my first day at the Apollo, and it was great! The atmosphere is warm but very professional; I have to remember, as one of my many new pieces of information, to dress the part. Everyone was very friendly and happy to help me out, especially the security folks who took my (terrifying) picture for my ID badge. I must say, I like having a badge on a lanyard and everything.
My two mentors are absolutely all-business. They are very kind and never hesitate to explain things to me, but they obviously have a lot of work to do and need someone who can keep up and learn as they work instead of hanging around on the sidelines. I need to be a player, not a substitute, and I'm prepared to work as hard as I can and show them that I'm active instead of passive. I also want to make sure I take advantage of the experience I'm getting, so my work keeps improving over time.
That's all for now, first day impressions. Check back soon!
