I'm excited for you, I really am. I just remember how happy I was when I started my current job, and looking back, I find that......it's not all that. I wish I had started looking right away, but I couldn't see all that was wrong with it when I'd so recently come from a place that was even worse.
Still, it's bound to work out better for you than for me. You've done a lot more to deserve a good job!
I love your description of waiting for text to bold.
I don't have a proper job, but I sympathize, because I used to and it sucked. They would give me a blueprint with some wires and plugs and shit drawn on in red. I drew them into the autocad file, highlighted the red-bits of the original blueprint with a highlighter, saved and printed the amended file, and returned both copies to the either the pervvy engineer, the asshole engineer, or the sleeping engineer. That's ALL I did for a year and a half (and then I got fired for "not being passionate about my career"). When I was hired, they told me I was going to do decorative lighting design, so I was a bit confused when they sat be down with a big pile of red-scribbled blueprints.
