you know, that was a really relaxing time. why do i need to give you numbers about a project six months into the future that won't hold up the second we finish? it'll be six, maybe five, possibly seven months. that should be enough, right?
Everyone knows you have a hard deadline and work backwards to today. It is immaterial whether that is enough time for the work or to line up appropriate resources. Duh.
Today is that magical day where "appointment" day and today line up! Unfortunately it is time gated to this evening. Hopefully I remember to make my call tonight. Wish me luck!
Nice! That's usually how it ends up for me too. Enjoyable, but the activation energy is insane.
Unfortunately this time, the appointment isn't a fun one, but it's a work thing. I need to present something and I had a couple months to prepare but I did jack. And now it's in a week
RE your work presentation, I think I know that pain. I've been misestimating this project I'm on over and over, and I just can't seem to muster. Even throwing overtime at it (the last resort) and all I've done is burn myself out and make my body hurt all over lol.
What's your work presentation about? Can you possible get an extension?
I don't think I can get an extension. And to be honest, a part of me know that I probably can crunch/grind and finish it in time. I just hate myself for half assing and doing the bare minimum again instead of actually doing it properly
It's always a relief when someone asks to schedule something a month in advance, because that means I won't have to do it. There's no way I'm remembering our engagement a MONTH FROM NOW!? That's like five years away.
