Day 1 at the New Shop

Bob the Builder

Today is the first day at the New Shop, and I'm a bit nervous that it's all going to be Node and React - they are tools I haven't done a lot of work in, but thanks to some help from a good friend, I feel I have a good start, and the Pragmatic Programmer's Simplifying JavaScript really is a good book to get up-to-speed on the latest changes to the language.

There's going to be a lot of learning, and it's going to be a little stressful at times, as I try to come up to speed as quickly as possible... but it's working with some very fine people, and this is the path I'm on... I need to learn all that I can - regardless of the circumstances.

I'm reminded of the chant: The King is dead. Long live the King! Life is a lot like that, it seems... and off we go! 🙂
