Home of Disneyworld!  That's where I'm at right now, well, not the theme park but the sprawling area known as the city of Orlando.

It's only been the third day on the new job for me, and I'm on assignment already.  So far so busy.  We come in early in the morning and get back to the hotel late at night.  Which is great, since I'm exhausted and excited to be absorbing new things all at once.  The good news is that Orlando has not offered any distractions from work, so being shelled up in the office all day lets us focus and build up energy and motivation for some quality R&R upon our return to New York late Thursday night.  I can see however the risk that by week 3, when coming to the client's office becomes the drudgery that makes me long for my cozy apartment in the big city, everything devovling to mere exhaustion.  We'll see, we'll see.

I've been meaning to give an extensive update on my new gig, especially a career change and big step out of b-school.  But I'm not quite sure how much to divulge on the World Wide Web yet.  Part of it is my own privacy and the other is legal (in terms of what I'm allowed to say about my employer and of course our clients).  But I welcome your suggestions and comments, you readers count.  For now, I can say that I've joined the ranks of many of my fellow INSEAD classmates into the world of consulting (not saying which firm yet).  Don't cringe.  Give me some more time to either justify or disprove your doubts.
