The Tasting

So, after twirling the glass, sipping and gargling, a sharp intake of breath brings the bouquet of M&A to life. And now, sliver bucket, spit.

Its actually not bad. This is the second day, and I actually like it a lot. Today my project got taken into a meeting, and yesterday was the deep end in calling. Besides the slightly frustrating bit of being slow, I am fine. There is free coffee, fruit and my colleagues are nice. So nice that I am tempted to be a pessimist.

I just can't get used to the fact that there seems to be minimal red tape in this organisation. If I want something, I don't have to ask someone, I take it from the stationary cabinet. If I have to send out an email, I send one out without a template, its more like point, aim and shoot. If I prefer a blackberry, one is ordered for me. Its fantastic.

All I can do right now is buy a couple of 'woman in business' books. Excluding the ones which essentially tell you to grow some balls if you don't already have any.
