Today I busted my ass to get all the small jobs done that I had to do before I could start on this epic job for a particularly annoying client.
This annoying client wanted the job done by last friday, but there was an issue getting the login/pass to his webhosting account. I -finally- got the info yesterday (job was submitted last tuesday), and grabbed the site to my local computator, but by that time it was the end of the day so my goal was to work on it today. Also, as the account manager throws jobs at me during the day, if they are not huge, I am expected to get them done on the spot, so things keep moving in front of the longer term projects such as the one I am talking about here.
.
So I am just about to start on the big epic job in like 15 mins (FINALLY!), and the client calls and blows his stack at us about it not beingt done yet. So now I am pissed because since he sees action taken on the project now, in his eyes it appears that nothing gets done unless he blows up, which is actually very far from true. The boss is unconcerned at the rate of speed I complete this job (to an extent) because the client has owed us a substantial amount of money for quite a while.
The whole thing is just kind of beat because I really did want to start working on it long before I got a chance to. I hate looking bad when I really didn't do anything wrong.
In other news, there has been no progress on getting VisualWebDeveloper2008 working on my other machine. I give up. I guess I am just not supposed to ever make sites the DO something. Doomed to static front end only for life baby.
I want to move from Flowery Branch, but it just isn't time for that to happen yet.
