Day two

Oh, day two. But let me hold you on for a second and add something to the yesterday's items.

Train that I use for commute is very convenient, indeed. But there's one thing that makes it not that perfect: The time-table. It runs just one or two times an hour, which make me stick to the time-table.

I forgot to mention that most of my co-workers are young people, some, including my boss, are younger than me. Which actually makes me feel really comfortable. But don't get it wrong: All these youngsters are not just drafters or newbies, not at all. They're all very important and knowledgeable.

I forgot to mention that there's no contract laborers at Sukhoi, we're all just employees. Ah, yes, we have badges here, but I was greatly surprised by the fact, that very few people wear them. Wearing your badge is not required here.

OK, now. I'm ready to tell you about my second day at Sukhoi. As soon as I arrived today we started to off-site technical coordination meeting with one of our customer's representatives. Naturally, I was mostly keeping silence and taking some notes, but I was absorbing every detail to get up to speed as soon as I can.

When we got back to the department I started to organize my notes I had taken at the meeting. I also felt that I could propose one improvement and my boss approached me in a second asking if I could propose any impovements on the item I was exactly thinking of. That became my first task.

I was also given by the local phone number and computer account. Ah, look at this baby-notebook. It is really cool, much lighter than my Boeing's Dell, but its keyboard is not very convinient, buttons are smaller (especially spacebar) and layed out somewhat strangely.
