In Exile...

I know I have written about moving to NewHomeGuide quite often on this blog, but it was really a decision that changed my outlook on corporate America. Being a part of the Homes team has given me the opportunity to expand my print knowledge, as well as share and implement new ideas and processes. Wow, that sounded like something to put on a resumé didn't it?

After joining the Homes/Graphic Support team in August of last year, we were suddenly moved away from the rest of EGG (Electronic Graphics Group), which is located on the first floor, and relocated to the third floor of our corporate office. After some initial hesitation, my fellow homies and I had managed to make the third floor our home. Movin' on up like George and Weezie, you could say.

There have been a lot of changes happening here since the beginning of the year. Primedia and Consumer Source are now one in the same, we got a new CEO (who is only 35, I might add) and the dress code is actually being enforced. I know, whine whine whine. So, I like wearing shorts on casual Friday – sue me.

It is because of some of these changes that Homes is being relocated – AGAIN! We will be moving out of the main corporate office and into a building in the same complex. I am starting to feel like the red-headed step child of EGG. I may need to seek therapy.

Tomorrow is moving day. At least I get a free half-day off with pay out of the deal! Being exiled has its advantages.
