    Perm noob

    I started this perm job and one perm team member, not manager, is talking to me as if he is going to be telling me what to do. It is day two tomorrow for me and I will be putting jedi effort in trying not to raise my voice on him in front of him as he is part of the existing perm gang, so I risk getting hated and needing to stand back a little.

    The fecker said first day was easier for me, but tomorrow will be more serious. Yo noob it will take me 2 weeks to get up to speed. I am going to communicate that to him tomorrow, and it is gonna be by manly stand, still face . I will have him schedule a meeting in my calendar before talking to me, if he pushes it. The noob think can push around a contractor, you gotta show them from day 1 who the fack they are dealing with.

    The issue though is that he is closer regionally ( similar province ) to the rest of the perm gang, so I might be taking stand against 7 people tomorrow. I have dealt with worse situations, before that noob was born.

    Decided to write this here, as I know people here know what I am talking about.

        You think?

        Actually, having had to work with teams like yours, I do. Sadly, I could care less.
        Blog? What blog...?

          I have no idea what you are talking about. It sounds like you intend to alienate your colleagues in the first week. Good plan.

            I am moving 2 tech projects of my own besides this perm job. I wouldn't mind alienation, and strict communication with me via email. Plus I will push for 2 days a week home work.
