5 minute commute

First day at work, proper. And a great commute on my new bike, briefcase squashed into the front basket. Five minutes through the backstreets, into the office via a back entrance and parked it amongst hundreds of others in a big outdoor shed.

Work itself was fine. Induction efficient and everyone very friendly. Shown where printers, faxes, kitchen, colour-coded meeting rooms, fire exits and (empty) first aid boxes were; IT guys reconfigured my PC; HR meeting; whisked round to meet everyone; then down to business. Before I knew it, 11 hours had passed.
