Re: Day 1 - The New Job
You can tell a lot about someone by looking around their living quarters. The only true furniture in the room is the bed and desk that were originally supplied. A large beanbag chair and nearby lamp, for reading, were purchased over the weekend and sit in the corner. On the desk sits a slightly older model laptop, and a stack of hardrives all anti-static bags - not for the extra storage, but but because hardrives have a tendency to fail around Israel, so he brought extras. Sensitive data is kept on various cloud services, since he can't cause those to collapse.
On the wall are three posters, one of Star Wars: Special Edition from 1996 (with the text in Hebrew), an American imported Raiders of the Lost Ark poster, and a third displaying the logo of Maccabi Tel Aviv Basketball.
A simple bookshelf contains both fiction (in English and Hebrew) and copies of Tanakh (The Hebrew Bible, basically the Old Testament), Talmud (Rabbinical teachings), some Apocrypha, and various Midrash (Commentaries on Tanakh and Talmud).
Israel doesn't have to worry about a drive, since he's already there, so he heads to the Cafeteria to get some breakfast. He looks for someone he knows, particularly Rebekah or Ariel. Both breakfast and the remainder of his free morning is spent socializing. If he's gonna be working with these people, he needs to get to know them.
