Update to previous whine...

[judith_s]

Apparently, my coworker (the one who "helpfully" pointed out that I had a baby) thought I was planning to refuse the offer to take over the project, and was trying to help me, by pointing out that I was very busy as is. In other words, clueless and trying to be nice, not evil or planning for herself.

In other news, I have way more work than I have time. I really don't want to work this three day weekend... but I may take Monday at work. For some reason the past two weeks have been filled with phone calls, urgent emails, and other projects that took 5 minutes to do, and actually took me 15 minutes from including finding the file, working 5 minutes, making notations on the file, and getting back to work. This leads to really bad billables... not to mention a complete lack of actual patent work coming out of my office. Maybe the coworker is right & I have too much to do.

But given a choice, I'd rather go be social this weekend. Decisions, decisions.

Heh. Welcome to hell, the water's fine.

My 10pm call did not reach a successful resolution, so there will be at least three more planning calls tomorrow, almost certainly leading up to another customer call sometime over the weekend.

Whee...

Eeeeee. I'm sorry. I hope things can get resolved a.s.a.p. in the least painful manner, whatever it is at this point, and you can enjoy the rest of the weekend undisturbed.
