take it as it comes
It's only 22:00 but I've been in my PJs since 20:00. At this moment in time, I'm just being perpetually bombarded by information, jargon, reports, emails, computer applications, and compliance issues. I wake up at 5:45 to be at work for 7:00 and I leave between 18:00 and 18:30. I work on the credit research team with about 15 others, predominantly well-seasoned European men between the ages of 30-45. It's not good, it's not bad, it just is. I'm still in the excited phase but learning is painful. Or maybe it's just staring at 3 computer screens constantly for 10 hours.
I told a friend that I'm really glad (and lucky) I waited this long to begin working, especially given the intense nature of the work because now I have the perspicacity to not get overwhelmed by the fact that I don't know shit and there's tons to do. I just do what I do and if I fuck up or it doesn't work out, at least the ride is/was interesting.

where there is challenge, there is interest...
I still revel in the last-minute, no shower, jeans and t-shirt sprint to class each morning:)
