Bridge

This is day 3 in bridge design. The guys here are very lively and entertaining. There's a giant purple monkey sitting on my cube wall. There was a picture of a design leader's face tape to it's butt. Thankfully the face is gone, a little disturbing having it watch me. The guys here seam to be more computer literate, and they play Black Hawk Down. It's not a very fun game in my opinion. They only play flag ball, and they like to snipe a lot. It's slower paced and half the time I don't know where I'm being shot from. This computer has Call of Duty and Unreal Tournament installed on it, but I haven't seen any games up on the network. They gave me temp login so I'll have access to the bridge files and admin rights, but it doesn't have
internet access. Luckily I've haven't need access to the bridge files so my normal login has suuficed.

They're apparently pretty busy right now. On the first day the design leader gave me an assignment to check over some false work designs. I stared at it for the first two days trying to figure it out, because it's structures. Structures was my worst subject. In fact this check looks like some homework that I did in my structural analysis and Concrete structures class. It's even having the same effect of putting me to sleep. It took me an hour to write like 10 lines, because I'd close my eyes after writing one line and fall asleep. The squad finally wasn't busy, and he offered me some help. I found out I was missing some information to complete this check.

The cubicle arrangement is a little annoying. My back is to the entrance, while the squad leader's oriented facing instead my cube. So he can see my desktop clearly, and watch me pass out several times a day. Overall the group here is nicer, but I don't care so much about the work. I always like transportation and traffic better.
