I am getting a good sense of the office layout and have only become lost twice today. It helps that the building is a trapezoid and thus enables one to orient more easily than a square or rectangular shape. The artwork in the hallways helps, too; it's all extremely weird and thus makes for memorable landmarks. I know I'm close to my office when I see the giant "Silence is Golden/Talk or Die" poster. The conference room where we did most of yesterday's training is helpfully pointed out by a life-sized charcoal sketch of a man contorted in a back spasm.

I just got a giant stack of papers that must be read tonight. Take them home or stay late? It's only the second day and already these decisions present themselves.
