New Job!

Ok I lied.  I don't have a new job... just a new position!  :)  I finished my first official week yesterday (yes, I only work in the office Mon - Thurs, aren't I lucky?!).  I feel like it went really well.  I realized that I know more about set-up of projects than I thought I did, and problems that seemed super foreign were a breeze to fix!
For those of you who don't know already, I am now the "Lead Checker" or "Manager of the checking department" or "Quality Assurance" etc.  I don't really like the "manager" one, because I'm currently the only checker.  So I guess I'm managing myself?  When we get new checkers I will be in charge of them, though.
Dana (my boss) and I had a meeting yesterday to see how my first week went, and to give me a real direction to take my new position into.  I know most of you don't understand my job whatsoever, but for those of you that do... 
I will be trying to stop specing errors.  We'll see how that goes.  But my plan is to track them by PD.  Maybe a certain PD always specs a certain point wrong.  If they spec the same point wrong 2 or more times, Dana will write them to notify them about it, so maybe they can clean up their specing.  Also, extra points spec'd differently on Stubs than they are on Banners.  I don't understand why they don't just copy from the banners... but whatever.
I will also be keeping track of faxed edits that are errors on our part.  If they faxed an edit of something they'd like to change, or a point they'd like to cut, that's fine.  We can't predict when they will do that.  But I want there to be absolutely 0 errors on our part.  That's the goal.  We'll see if we can reach it!
Lol... I just read through my blog, and I kind of sound like a politician rambling off their ideas for a better America.
? Until next time!
