Update on my job

I've been working at Analyzer for over two months now so I have a routine going and a small understanding of how it functions. One of the things I am beginning to appreciate more and more is the freedom in this job. Although we are encouraged to show initiative, we don't get pressured to be constantly busy. I have also been putting my efforts into an inventory program that I mentioned before.
This inventory program has been a bulk of what I have done at Analyzer. It's an simple inventory program now that we are using to keep in check the equipment that we maintain for our clients. While simple, the program has a great potential for being a tool that will enhance our performance in the field. It's not just a inventory control system. It's an interface that can keep us informed anywhere.
I have used open source tools to create this web application. It will provide its services over the web for browsers and mobile devices. That is where my efforts are. I have learned a lot because of this. I am mostly working by myself on this program. My colleagues are acting as concurrent developers or giving input. Learning how to format and populate a mobile web page is one of many things I had to figure out how to do for this application. It's been a very rounded work experience.
