May As Well "Kiff" My Free Time Good Bye...
I witnessed the rebirth of my eighty hour work week as I walked through the door of my new job this morning. I wish I could say that it hurt, that somehow the realization of long days and the rehashing of my tamed caffeine addiction dampened my spirits slightly, but, man, I really like the atmosphere of this company.
Now that I've spent eight hours in one-on-one meetings, reading scores of standard operating procedures, watching powerpoint presentations, and conversating with half a dozen management personnel, I am now able to tell you what Kiff actually does!
Essentially, we specialize in determining levels of diesel and gasoline residues in soil, water and air samples. This information is used by engineering and consulting firms to determine fault, financial responsibility and mitigation protocols for underground fuel tank leaks at gas station sites, and other similar civil suit issues. Not quite the "forensic toxicology" job I originally set out for, but hey, it's a good place to start.
Now, don't be jealous, but tomorrow, I get to read standard operating procedures for... EIGHT FRIGGIN' HOURS. Vision plan had better be included in my health insurance!
