Welcome

The first week has been full of new faces and all of them friendly ones. Everyone has been really open and helpful and it’s been good finding out what everyone gets up to round here. The office is packed full of madness, so we’ve had fun playing with fake arms and sombreros. We’ve tested out the padded cell and we like the big red booth.

We’ve been recording our movements…

Serious

This place works so well because everyone knows their job and its lovely to see relaxed but serious work underway. It’s good to feel the warmth. Everyone seems to collaborate and work together on all projects which for us means that we have people to help us at every stage and will be exposed to different processes and knowledge within the agency. Everyone is always willing to spend time to show us things and talk to us.

I There’s no ‘I’ in team.
