you come off a little as a high maintenance employee. They are obviously excited to have you and are onboarding you quickly. For every story like this, there’s another where someone doesn’t even get a laptop the first week, or they don’t even have time to invite the person to meetings (sometimes they don’t have a desk, a keycard, etc).
