Pensieri di un lunatico minore

8 July 2008 Personal

In the continuing saga (pt. n)

Last night I got a call, at 10pm, from my boss saying that the project manager was demanding I be down on-site this week. This was after we agreed I would be home for a week this week over 2 weeks ago, and after I worked through a weekend to make sure that I could do that. What makes it even more laughable is that what he’s worried about is something I know nothing about and can’t really promise I can figure out. I’ve been saying he needs some specialized skills for 3 months now.

I told him no.

Ouch! Brinksmanship is always dodgy and from experience usually results in the developer leaving.

Hang in there dude. We all go through this at some point and it makes us all a little stronger. Good on you for sticking to your guns.

What he said. Hopefully, the project will complete as scheduled this September. You’ve been at it for 19 months or so as a “miracle worker”. Time to get some relief.
