Aha. Apparently the benefits forms aren't really supposed to make sense yet, because I haven't had orientation yet. Also, I'm supposed to be getting a letter that explains the whole orientation thing. (Silly post office, how about delivering things in the right order?) However, now at least I know that I'm supposed to have orientation on December 13. And I called my various temp agencies and said "So long and thanks for all the fish".

The fact that it's pouring throws a bit of a curveball at my plans for today. I know I won't melt if I go out in the rain, but still, I don't particularly want to lug groceries home in it. I suppose I can wait until tomorrow, because I want to make soup sometime Fridayish so I'll have it around next week.

Yeah, the orientation thing basically takes a whole morning. Its actually very informative and pretty easy to pay attention to the whole thing. Basically, the best idea is to max out the benefits they offer you. Its all coming out pre-tax anyways and I still pay less per month for all the benefits together than I used to pay for half a month of health insurance. Yay university benefits. Hey, double check that holiday schedule when they send it to you. Do you get the entire week from December 23-Jan 1 off? Just curious.
