The Soulful Atom

Well the title says it all! All this is so new and yet somehow it feels familiar. It must be the environment and the people around. But it feels very familiar. It doesn't feel like Friday! Doesn't feel like the end of the week at all, cause i've never been so fresh by the end of the week while working! And mind you the first three days were heavy. Though I was unsure about how the business goes about and I still am about almost all of the technical aspects, it doesn't feel very demanding. I know it will be, but somehow I get the feeling that I will be enjoying it.

Its not like the other places I've worked in, though the people there too were friendly.. Somehow I still can't seem to get out of the "colleagues are colleagues" mode. My sister on the otherhand knows the how biography of her colleagues by the first week! while I get complaints about not talking at all! :( I can't seem to figure what to talk about! seems like a real block, specially in the kind of environment of this office, I might be perceived as being too uptight, guarded and rude(?) or maybe the typical "someone with "attitude"" ;) May be it will take some time. But then again in my previous company I was this way for all the time that i worked there which was a whole year, though I was by no means rude and am still in touch with all of the colleagues on a much personal level. I would be a part to the conversation but only listening most of the time, though I did make a few comments here and there and did ask questions. I guess my being there and listening in itself is a way of showing that I'm present and acknowledging them, infact much more! THe reaction I give are not only robotic but are actually "reactions" to what others are saying! :) I do talk a lot with friends, may be in a office senario the people around are much more experienced and I'm ignorant about most of the things (not only job related), so there's not much I can add to it. Well, lets see.. Maybe this new place will help me change for the better! seems interesting anyway! :) cheers!!
