The First Day
I finally did it, I am out on my own. It is really great to finally feel like I am in controll of my destiny. I feel like I have learned a lot about business and the world in the last 12 years since I have been in the working world. Even in this horrible economy there is a lot of work out there. People are trying new ideas and they need help implementing these ideas. That is where I am trying to help. I want to get these ideas into tangible things that customers can use. I also have some of my own ideas that I am hoping to try out.
Today was pretty uneventful and not a whole unlike a regular job, I only got half the stuff I wanted to get done. For my own purposes here is what I did.
1. Installed the backup site for a sub contract that I was working on. (codename bte)
2. Invoiced a client for some work I did on a provider search and CMS system (EBPHI)
3. Worked on some bugs (3) for a long term project that I have been working on. (HHCPO)
4. Sent email to various people informing them that I am out on my own.
5. Looked at some site for any new and interesting projects.
6. Started working on a project requirements document. (ELF)
7. Had a lunch meeting with WAC to get IP and ND docs signed.
8. Lastly I made a blog entry right here. I hope to do this at the end of every day to catalog what I do.
So far so good. It was a good first day.
