congrats!! i'd be in for grabbing a coffee too if i'm not working

I don't think my dog hated anything i played. she would always lay by the speaker and fall asleep. she's mostly deaf so I don't think any hearing damage was happening as a result.

I bought a bag but haven't used it yet. I don't even know what I'm supposed to mix it with. Water? I could just google it.

Ah cool. I don't really know too much about that role but I'm sure the interview will go well! keep us updated. It would be cool to have another VC friend in the area. Thanks for the recommendation. I'm eagerly waiting for my first paycheck so I can really enjoy Seattle. =)

nice!! I'm excited there is a big VC population in Seattle! I've only been here a few weeks but I recommend going to Molly Moon. It.is.amazing . http://www.mollymoon.com/flavors why type of role are you applying for? I hear Amazon is pretty cool to work at. I've only managed to visit one of their buildings here but it was really nice inside.

people were driving pretty bad out there. I saw a car slide down the hill sideways this morning and I definitely waited before crossing that street. luckily i just had a 5 min walk to work so it was an easy commute for me.

It snowed today and it was amazing. I'm not used to nice fluffy snow

those are awesome! Check out Warby Parker. Super cheap, like $100 including lens and they are built really well.

this sounds like an amazing career for you! best of luck, you're a great fit for it.

just downloaded this and yessssssss. this is gonna help big time! thanks! beer fest sounds awesome! Can you post a reminder when it's close? maybe all three of us can meet and hang.

luckily they hired 30 of us so I'm in a pack of being the new person. we are doing classroom training for about 4 weeks and then we split into our teams we got placed on. I don't think i'm allowed to go into detail but me and two others got placed on the Cortana team and that section seems freakin awesome! I'm glad to hear you had a good first week! Have you done any tourist stuff? I went to the pike place area and had really good homemade apple cider but I'm sure there is a lot more to be seen. It sounds like you got a great view from your office! Are you working in Seattle or outside of it? My team is in Bellevue so I'll be working from there soon instead of Redmond. we don't get free food but drinks are free. Been drinking lots of weird stuff like coconut water and orange juice in a tiny can and these weird flavored waters. Have you been using public transport? I kept getting lost on it. sounds like we both are really diggin this move!

congrats!!!

Mornin! I think I'm in for an exciting day. I get to meet some members from the team I got placed on. really excited!!!

shit, i'm sorry. Check the nearby pawn shops? it really sucks to have this happen.

First day of work was awesome!! I got placed in the team I really wanted so I am set. Everyone seems to be pretty cool too so that's a bonus.

i don't think it would look bad. i think you should take the job to get out of the job you currently hate. but that's just my opinion. who knows what doors this job can open for you.

i'd say do it. it's something different and it sounds like you need a change in your workday.

I'm doing an AirBnb in Redmond. It's a nice 5 min walk to work. I've been to seattle a few times and keep getting lost but it's been cool so far. Hopefully I don't wander into Pioneer Square at night.

SF has spots are are completely fine and then you'll walk into a really scary part and have to walk pretty fast until you're past it. I also was probably living in a bad part of town, SOMA. I almost got attacked twice. I was walking on market and come guy ran up and grabbed my shoulders and kept saying sorry but wouldn't let go and then suddenly just took off running. Another time I was standing waiting for my friend and I was behind a door with bars and some guy came up and tried grabbing me through the bars and I stepped back and then he just started kicking the door and then left. Really freaky! I tend to get pretty freaked when strangers start talking to me and a lot of that happened in SF. oh and the homeless guy across the street where I lived in SF owned a gun. I'm not sure if I've been to Pioneer Square yet. I went to wherever the place with the first starbucks was and it was pretty cool. found a place that sold apple-pear cider. pretty awesome.

i'm sorry to hear about your panic attack. My sister gets them pretty bad so I can sort of understand how bad it is. I highly recommend linkedin.. I would go on there and look for companies and then recruiters for the companies and then just blindly message them with my quick pitch about myself. It's a great angle to come at. I think a lot of recruiters like networking on there. A lot of them will send out messages to you. I would recommend adding a lot of people on there. It helps to grow your network. You can add me on there if you want (Taraneh BigBow).

thanks! Any updates on your job search? have you been working the Linkedin angle?

missed my bus stop yesterday and got lost and wandered around. Today has been a lot better. Luckily this place doesn't creep me out like SF. I refused to be out when it was dark. Seattle is pretty awesome!

yesss thanks! I copied that all down and will slowly make my way through some of them. I went to the Tipsy Cow and was floored by all their choices. Oklahoma did not have a great selection...

Does anyone like the show People of Earth? Started that today
