MY SIXTH DAY AT BOWNE:

Hi! To those of you out there who previously worked for Bowne, I put this query: Did you get evaluated after only four days on the job?

I know I was evaluated. And the conclusion reached by both my floor manager and XB, our project manager, is that I am a computer retard. Now, I don't think I am an actual retard. I know how to do things on the computer. However, I don't know all the shortcuts. Also, I try to do a good job, so it is possible that I overcompensate, and thus, make simple mistakes. But that is besides the point.

The point is, after six days employed at Bowne, confidence in my ability to do things is not exactly strong. Ah well.
