At work. Kinda.

I haven't signed the contract yet, but I'm nonetheless sitting in [livejournal.com profile] daerr's office. More miscommunication; the fellow who'll act as my main customer contact (the company itself being my customer) hasn't shown up yet or answered my email from yesterday so I don't have anything to do.

And of course the usual "first day at work" elation dissolves away because I'm not getting paid for this. If I were a bastard I'd bill for this time sitting around picking my nose, but I am not a bastard. I guess actually I should just go home if he doesn't appear in the next hour or so. But, whatev; it's nice to be very quite almost in a money-earning state again. Nearly.

The status as of Thursday was "Show up anytime and get started." Yesterday the contact emailed me and asked me when I thought I'd start; I replied to say I'd like to wander in the following morning. So I did, though there was no further mail.
