It's a new project, a new place, new faces, new tasks. The same jitters, every time. But this project is only about 2.5 months long. It will be over before I know it.
I get to work with co-workers whom I have not seen in a long time. That's wonderful. I never see my co-workers. We work alone, distant from each other, voices on the phone, jerky and blurry images on the screen.
I still have another project to work on, at night.
It's nice to be wanted by so many people.
About Me
- Marvin the Martian
- I am an alien here on this little planet. I've been sent to learn about life here, to observe people and things around me, and to become a better entity by applying the lessons that I learn here. I've chosen the name "Marvin the Martian" because he is familiar to many, and the Martian mindset isn't expected to be similar to a human's. Thank you for stopping by to read this little blog. I hope you'll come back.
