Welp, first day in the books. I kinda felt like there could've been some more more time could have been spent on the learning portion of things, but overall it was a pretty good day. The owners (husband and wife) both spent a good deal of time with us and are apparently ever-present in the office. We also met about half of the intimately small office staff individually as we were introduced to rules and expectations from different departments. I think we've all heard people say that where they work is like a family. This is the first time I've actually seen it for real. I'm home

And my truck passed inspection with flying colors which is a load off my mind. Day two tomorrow and we're done. But I'm likely staying for the voluntary class the next day taught by the owners. It'll just be a half day and I am weirdly compelled to stay just because the owners are so friggin cool. Then off I go into happiness
