Back into 9 to 6 time table

Yes, after few months of hiatus and afternoon naps, I am back in the work life. For this moment this job is providing me the specifics of living in same place as my husband's, allowing me family time and a decent packet. Although this is not first job for me but there are many things I am doing in this job for  the first time.

• This is the first time I am working outside of an university.
• This is the first time I will not be handling any chemical.
• This is the first time I will not be collecting data sitting in front of a big machine.
• This is the first time my supervisor's designation is a manager and not a professor.
• This is the first workplace for me where I see lots of women from lower level to the highest level of the career ladder.
• This is the first time I will not spend lots of time finding answers to the questions imposed from last experiments.
• This is the first time I won't be blocking machine time to run experiment and then keeping my finger crossed to get those blocked time unhindered to finish the experiments ( no machine break, J not getting sick etc.).
• This is the first time my colleagues are not scientists or scientific co-workers. Most of them are actually medical doctors.
• This is the first time I am working in India.
• This is the the first time I am involved in collaborative projects which runs across countries and time zones and not just between two laboratories in a same institute or university.
• This is the first time I am not overburdened that I need to perform for development of my own career. It is a team work that matters in my new job and projects are done as a part of a team commitment
• This is the first job for me where the timing jotted down through swipe card really counts.
• Actually money and time are very much connected to the deliverables.
• This is the first time when I don't feel guilty on leaving office at 6 in contrast to my past life of a researcher.
• Now I am more close to write about science or drug development and drug safety professionally.
• I am learning the process of writing science more as a art of communication than to report it as facts and figures.
• My new work is absolutely not related to my last life of a scientific researcher.
• My new work is but very closely related to all the transferable skills I have acquired while doing bench science.
• My long term staying outside India is coming handy in understanding and maintaining the international commitments required in this job. 
• After spending first few weeks in the work place I have adapted to my daily routine now.
• I primarily started liking my work place.
• People are relaxed and helpful, a major plus point in a work place.
• The nature of work is definite and structured, a relief from boundless work I always had before.
• Training is provided to the new comers and each and every step is structured, formatted and peer reviewed - an art which is absolutely absent in academics thus leading to dilution of focus and objectives in so many cases.
• I hope to keep learning new things and keep going in unknown career directions with my handful of transferable skills.
