Marvin Manuel: The New Guy and Still the Gamer

The only thing new about me since the Desktop Support article in the October 2018 FreightVine is that I have moved to EDI. Keith, as they say, made me an offer I could not refuse. I’ve been in this department for about two months and now have a better understanding of what EDI is and who the people are that run it. There’s a lot to learn in what feels like a

short time but I fit in just fine with this group of nerds, so learning from them isn’t that bad. To cope with the amount of information that they are trying to download into my head, I still keep up with my hobbies when I finally get to leave for the day. I am making plans to head to Wondercon later this year and am going to some punk rock shows since I failed to attend any last year. PC gaming still eats up most of my time, but I’m pretty sure the longer I stay in EDI, there will be less time to game.
