today i spent all day doing one project. it was a surprise revisit to a project completed earlier in the week which required attention today due to a bit of a problem with the downstream implementation. so i did a re-do. it took all day, but to be done was satisfying. ahhh! done! done AND it's friday! ahhh! so i was feeling allright and fixing to leave the office when i received an email informing me the problem was a bit more widespread than expected. did you know XYZ is all ZYX, ace? didja? DiDjA? didjadidjadidja? uh... anyway, points to me - for, that which i accomplished on the western front should satisfy the eastern flank also. i am not required to worry about this late-breaking ZYXism. however, the real issue here is, why do people send emails at 16:30 on a friday afternoon to raise a red flag? could this red flag have not been raised around, say, 13:45? perhaps even 14:24? at any rate, i am confident you comprehend the annoyance here and that you are on my side in this. i'll put you down for $20. thanks muchly.
