I'm having an "I love my job" kinda day.
I've been enjoying the new gig, but they've had me focusing on the writing rather than the training part of the Technical Writer/Trainer role since I started. Yesterday, I finally got to do my first bunch of training sessions, and had another two today.
It was awesome.
I really, really like teaching/training/getting up in front of people and showing them cool stuff. And I'm pretty darn confident that I'm good at it. Confirming this was the fact that everyone seemed really happy with the sessions, and a bunch of people complimented me on them. The best was one of the senior Admin. Associates (the gals who pretty much run the place) who told me "I'm glad we finally have a trainer. And I'm really glad it's you."
Awww.
Traumatic as getting laid off was, I seem to have honestly ended up in a better place.
So, let's hear it for having a job you enjoy.
