Late today I was told by one of my project leads (there are two) that I have a Thursday deadline. I asked what I needed to finish by the deadline and he told me to ask the other project lead. So I sent out some email. After receiving no reply, I found the other project lead at his desk and asked what the deadline was for. He also had no idea, but he told me that he’d just attended a meeting (with the other project lead) and yes, I did have a deadline. Fortunately for me, before I started sharpening a machete and started muttering to myself, I talked to the project manager and she told me that I needed some repeated data so the legal department would allow us to publish the data. Finally, a clear answer. Now I know what I need to do for Thursday.<\/p>\n
In any case, that was the end to my frustrating day and the promise of some long days again. Looks like someone recycled the comics page, too, before I read it. Someone has a case of the Mondays.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
