New Job, New Sights

I started my job yesterday. It was a very nice and welcoming first day complete with a tin of loose leaf tea and a welcome card at my desk.

One of the perks of living where I live and working where I work is that I am able to have a pretty easy public bus commute. I rode the bus to my first day and have already been reminded why public transit is a nice way to get to work. While sipping my tea and looking out the window, I happened to see a very amusing sight that I probably would have missed if I had been driving. The bus stopped alongside a major construction site where there were a bunch of big, burly construction workers in their work boots, jeans, lined sweatshirts and florescent vests. They were gathered in a circle doing coordinated group stretches. I just happened to be there to witness them doing a stretch that very strongly resembled the Dancer yoga pose.

Talk about an entertaining start to the day!
