Data, data everywhere

Data entry. I'm now an expert on data entry. Been entering it for most of the last four days, but it keeps coming - seems sometimes like Alphabet Media is all about data entry. James says that regional magazines generate loads of data, so I guess this will be a regular activity... Guess it makes a change from studying - and it is not so bad when we get treated like full members of the team.

Certainly I like the fact that Alphabet feels like home - and besides being looked after by the other staff, it's nice that we have our own desks, stationery.

We actually don't see too much of James as he is busy working on a large conference next month [Editor - Government Technology Forum. It's bigger than Ben Hur.] - but when we do see him it's normally for him to look worried and say "hmm... I think I need to find something else for you to do to keep you busy."

So now we're getting to grips with new work - interview transcription. James, Gerald, Raj and Lianngan promise that there'll be plenty of interviews to transcribe over the weeks ahead. Guess it can't be worse than data entry? Sarah, stop laughing!
