since livejournal is suggesting that i give my friends virtual pots'o'gold, i can safely assume that it's reached st patrick's day.
today, like the rest of the week, has not been anything special in terms of my work days. well, we went out to lunch today, but the actual working part of the day was nothing special. ultimately, i'm looking at quality assurance for a computer program, and the general recommendations regarding quality assurance for that type of program. as you may have guessed, this can be a little dry, even if the recommendations themselves are good.
thankfully, i am now done with the reading and need to start implementing, which can't be done without a particular other staff member. this staff member has currently broken her hand and probably won't be at all interested in working on this tomorrow if she is back at work. so this means that the task is most likely a next week issue. which is fine, except it makes me feel as if i have this looming work. not the kind that requires a loom, but the kind that hovers in the back of your mind, reminding you that you haven't completed it. so tomorrow might also be an average kind of day.
friday is my day off. i think i'll try to study a bit. we had people come to my work to do exams today. they are the same exams that i will sit in a year, and it was an unwelcome reminder to me of how little i feel that i know. the terrifying part is that they can ask you almost anything from our syllabus, which is quite massive. on the other hand, i do believe this is a good thing, as i don't want myself or anybody i know going to a hospital and having some half-wit that doesn't know anything trying to do calculations on their treatment. i think that people who have my job should really know their stuff. i just don't think i know enough yet to sit those exams. hopefully i feel differently in a year.
