[[!meta title="First Week at Thread" ]]
On Monday I started working on [[Thread|https://thread.com/]]. A 3 year old
startup that has set out to reinvent how the world buys clothes.
On arrival, I began setting my office machine up with Debian, and left it
cloning the rather large git repository while I and the rest of the company
went out to a nearby pub for lunch. By the end of the day I had my office
machine setup, my name on the [[website|https://www.thread.com/help]] and had
begun working on a small feature for the order management part of the site.
On Tuesday, work came to a halt at 11:30. Everyone set of to [[London
Fields|http://www.openstreetmap.org/#map=16/51.5402/-0.0601]] for the picnic in
celebration of Thread's 3rd birthday.
Wednesday was actually normal as far as I can remember, Thursday featured a
office movie night, and today (Friday) I had published my first contribution to
the site, along with enjoying my first office lunch.
Thread use a great set of technologies, Python, Django, PostgreSQL and Debian.
I have learned loads in just my first week, and I can't wait to get stuck in
over the next few weeks.
