AAAAAH
Dude, this is like not funny. I have SO MUCH SHIT TO DO >.>
Work is kind of imploding in my face. My boss did something ABSOfuckingLUTELY BRILLIANT. I love my boss. He's great. But there really are times it becomes PAINFULLY OBVIOUS that I'm doing my job instead of him because he has NO IDEA how it works.
See, he went away for a two-week vacation from the week of the fourth until this week. My coworkers have discovered that I OMG GET SHIT DONE, so generally no one pokes or prods or checks in on me and they just sometimes give me enough work to do. I usually have to ASK for it, but at least they try? The rest of the time I get paid to write gay fan porn >.>
Anyway. He's gone for two weeks and leaves me with one assignment. It's something that really I can get done in a week but whatever, he doesn't have any more ideas and so I just spent the time making sure it was all prettified and tweaking the code to be more sparkly and efficient.
He comes back Monday, takes a look at what I've got and is all like, "Great! Excellent! Now add all these features that should really take you three weeks to do and do it BY FRIDAY."
AASKASFMKJFf:FKFJL'fklFKMJFJWEFO:MJSL:MDASFKLm.
Of course, he didn't say the part about three weeks, but that's how long it SHOULD take to do well. And he wants them by Friday. Because he couldn't POSSIBLY have TOLD ME that he wanted those features IN THE FIRST PLACE so I could have spent the last week working on them instead of fucking around with making the colours two shades lighter and slightly more blue.
I mean, some of the things he wants me to add I DON'T KNOW HOW TO DO. I know where to go to LEARN how, but jesus christ. And no, I can't have an extension.
ARGH.
Meanwhile I have SNEAKY THINGS I need to be doing for people that ALSO have due dates attached. Except I don't get paid for them which means maybe some presents I meant to give will be late. Argh.
Yeah, anyway. Now I am less ranty. Back to work =D
