Finally Moved to the IBM Buildings
I have 2 weeks left in my co-op term and I’ve finally moved to the actual IBM buildings at 8200 Warden. Err, moving. We left last Friday and tomorrow I get to go there.
I’ve been there before for little tours and things but we finally have to moving in and work there. My cubical about twice as big as what some people have to share between two people. It’s about the same size as my room in residence was. It’s way too awesome.
But I won’t be doing actual scheduled work for a while. We have to set up the lab which will probably take the greater part of the next week. It’s not a problem for me though since I love the hardware aspect of computers nearly as much as the software side. Not the really small details like circuit boards and stuff but each component as a whole. It’s what separates me from the rest of CSers.
After that move it will be a bit of work with the new co-ops coming from U of T (I don’t get to see my UW replacement), a bit of busy work, going away lunches and then I’m back to school.
And that starts with living at a friend’s house for about 4 days then moving in part way through orientation week while I’m orientating. Probably the busiest weekend of my life. It’s gonna be so much fun.
