Another two-week assignment delivered to the customer – this is fun! Honestly, although it is tough hours and demanding work, it really makes me happy. A good chunk of it is the environment – the colleagues mostly. Boy, I know that every recruiting website says that their people are the nicest and brightest and ladida… but here, they are not only nice and bright, they are people I _like_ and some of them could well turn into friends over time. That’s a big deal for me, and I really appreciate it.
Adding to the good mood: Yesterday we went on a team event – my five colleagues and the two leads. We did a three hour introduction to improvisational theatre – that was awesome! The course was conducted by a professional actor who is playing impro for years now, and he got us to do all kinds of things – mostly being spontaneous, developing and continuing a train of thought, finding associations… we went through all kinds of exercises, all of them really fun. We worked really well together – the coach did not want to believe that we all know each other just from a few weeks to a few days. I am happy to be in an environment where, when it comes to play, hierachy really is not played, and I had terrible fun with my folks here.
Looking into the weekend: This is gonna be gooood! Tine came back from Marokko yesterday, so there will be lots of stories to tell and pictures to see. Oh, and of course: Serious relaxing to do! Maybe I’ll even get to go for a run – I was a good boy this week and spend the lunch break on Tuesday and Thursday running through the Tiergarten here in Berlin, so this might expand to the weekend
