Six Months At Last!

by Raul Gallegos on Thursday, September 20 2007

Yesterday the nineteenth of September marked the six month anniversary of my employment here at GW Micro. When I think of it, the word, "anniversary," is really not the exact correct term to use. I mean, doesn't the word, "anniversary," mean some sort of yearly celebration? Well actually, after looking up synonyms at http://www.thesaurus.com, it turns out that I can use the word "anniversary" because it is not specific to a yearly observance. Ah, there is a word, "observance." Or, how about, "recognition," or lastly, "triumph."

 

Well, whatever you wish to call it, as I was saying, yesterday was the six month marker for my employment. I can truthfully say that so far, I have not had a weekday where I wake up, not wanting to come to work. I am not just saying that because Doug or Dan will probably be reading this either.

 

I've been thinking of all the things I've helped with over the last few months. Of course I cannot mention them all here, but the short list below should be okay.

 

  • I got a chance to see firsthand the release of Window-Eyes 6.1.
  • I've gotten a chance to write up a few of my own KB articles.
  • I've gotten a chance to continue helping other GW Micro customers through our mailing lists.
  • I got a chance to help with the release of the Voice Sense.
  • I'm helping to shape the GPS program for the Voice Sense.
  • I've gotten to see that the summer of 2007 in Fort Wayne was really not that bad.

 

When I look back at my first few days here compared to now, other than some of the mystery not being there any more, it's not too bad. Ever since I started here, I've always been made to feel welcome. I just fit in as if I had been here for years. Well that feeling is still there. I'm not really good at putting my thoughts into words, so that is it for now. Please feel free to comment on this if you like.
