Viewzi: week 1
So, what do I think of my decision to move, after a week... basically, of working here? I think it is the best decision I have made in the past 5 years, professionally, and personally.
Personally, we have a winner.
First off, the area (outside Dallas, TX) is wonderful. We have settled in Plano TX for the present and we really love the town. It doesn't have that "crush of humanity" feeling you get from a city like Dallas, but you still have access to everything you could ever want, either in Plano itself, or just a few miles away in Frisco TX.
We have had a blast traveling around the area, discovering what there is to do. And of course it helps that there is an IKEA less than 10 miles away from our apartment. We're there a lot. A lot.
Professionally, we have a winner
As for the job, what can I say it's awesome. I work with great people, trying to bring a seriously cool dream to reality.
It is a dot com startup and its not. We have all the excitement and laid back atmosphere of a pre-bubble startup but beneath it runs this current of business savvy and vision. We are in this to make money as well as do something cool.
To steal a quote from Cory Doctorow, we want to fill our bathtubs with money and laugh, and laugh and laugh. And yes we have a business plan, a very, very nice business plan.
Oh and you can't beat this kind of team building excersize. Represent!
Alright, I think thats it for now, I still don't have internets at home, so I am writing this from the clubhouse at the apartment, so I am going to sign off. I need to make an other run to IKEA... to just look at it.
