My first day at the office was exciting. I met Radu, Diane, and William. I met Helmut yesterday after his wife Erika picked me up from the airport. Björn was also in the office today, and he cooked lunch for everyone. It was sausage with bread and a sauce/topping of diced tomatoes and maybe curry?

Tomorrow morning, Björn and I are going to the Kreisverwaltungsreferat to register my residence (Abmeldung), and get a work permit.
Here are my temporary accommodations, in the room adjacent to the workstations:

This is exciting! more posts!
Curry? You never went with us for curry ;-(
Well it wasn’t yellow, so maybe it wasn’t curry. Anyway, they are already learning that I don’t like beer and coffee.
Franziskaner Weissbier – give ‘er a try before they learn too much about your beer aversion.

Looks like a pretty cool place–and how can it not be, with so many Macs?
So far, it seems to be very cool. They take turns making lunch for everyone, trying to earn the title of ‘best cook.’ The work environment is bright and quiet, and the tools we have are top notch. They use a lot of Atlassian software, git for source control. I’m learning a lot, which is great.
