So the day has come... I'm not that excited because the whole day sucked like
hell. If you're a guy who's hoping to get a decent job on your first try,
forget it.

For a start off, I arrived at 9h30 at the office so I would start being taught
the all-fancy Microsoft's SharePoint... yet the boss only came at midday! I
wasted 2,5 hours for nothing. When the guy actually came he said I should start
with SharePoint right away. The thing is he didn't actually say I was to do it
all by myself. After some dirty stuff we did lifting closets, me and a newcomer
as well were given a book (not two - one per brain - , just one) and told:
"Start doin' it, you have this virtual machine to start playing around..." What
the hell?! Where's our training? This slide-like 250 page book with something
we didn't put our brains into whensoever in our entire life and we just «start
doin' it»??

The worst thing was the machine I was given: it didn't work! I had to format it
myself and spend 2 hours trying to make it work with the virtual machine up and
running as well..! After everything was clear, I tried to actually run the VM;
result: it didn't work again. One more hour to fix it and it finally goes up.
What's my final suprise? The VM is slow as a turtoise!

I can't work like this! Somebody make time go bullet fast because I had enough
of this and it's been only my first day! I start to get a little scared of what
might happen the next weeks.

<span style="text-decoration: line-through;">I'm looking for a company that
wants PHP or Rails with special concern on page design. Just talk to me and
I'll be right over.</span> No fancy crap like Microsoft please!
