Some of the first notions

The last day of the third week is going on. I should have written much more here, but eventually the moment for writing always moved on to the future. Well, I guess that the future is here right now.

As I expected, the pace of work isn´t as exhausting than it often is Finland. Don´t get me wrong, this place doesn´t have any siestas and people don´t party at the work, but the difference is that there is no stress. At least not most of the time. Sometimes occurs something that needs to be done quickly, but it´s nothing that will change the overal rhythm of working. I can´t be sure why stress won´t feel here in the same way than in Finland, but I have a one idea. Hiring people is more expensive in Finland and level of payment is generally much lower here. This might mean that the same company would try to survive with less people in a country like Finland. Here it´s more economic to have more people to do same kind of things. And yes of course, some foreigners who want to do their internship outside of home country...

Unlike in Finland, here isn´t exact time for a lunch hour. Everyone goes when they feel like it. Most of the people are eating somewhere between 3 and 4 a.m. Usually I started to feel hungry some hours earlier. Pals at the same room tought it´s strange, too early to eat. Some of those guys don´t eat almost anything during the whole day and go to eat home at evening.

The most frustrating thing yet is changing of working place and computer. It disturbs my concentration and breaks workflow when I have to regularly change the place where I work. This has happened twice. Last time I had to move to another room too and computer I work with is a lot worse than others before. Definitely not originally for graphic design, which can easily seen from lack of certain type of programs. I also used to work with two monitors. Now I have to survive with only one. Sob.

Overally I´m pretty satisfied with the place and work. The tasks in the beginning were more simple, like small changes to web pages etc. Now I´ve got more complicated and design related tasks to do. Currently I´m designing a menu for a dentist firm. It was about time. This is what came here for!
