"TGIF"
... makes no sense if you're staring at a work-packed weekend. But at least I get to sleep in some and work according to my whims and fancies.
Boss gave me a rather hefty drafting assignment on Monday, due by the following Monday. I was able to familiarise myself with the files sooner than expected, so left earlier than usual on Tuesday, thinking I could start drafting wednesday morning and get it out of the way by Friday. Or at the latest, by Monday morning, but without coming in over the weekend.
Yea. But the best laid plans...
Wedneday morning, I get hit with a massive task that should have gone to 2 other people. I spent all day working on it, solo no less, and came back Thursday to finish it. At 10pm Thursday, I went home, exhausted, and never wanting to see dates or the words "invoice", "receipt", and "travelling and expenses claim form" in my life again.
Finally today, I sat down and started work proper on my drafting exercise. Looks like I'll have to come back both Saturday AND Sunday. It's my first assignment working directly with my Boss and I don't wanna cock it up. I'd rather spend too much time than too little.
So onwards and upwards! Happy weekend to you all.
