Happy new year dude, take it easier than the one before!
Merry Day-After-Christmas all!
Well I spent Christmas working, but such is life. At least I got to do it from home!
My life is so focused on work that I can't tell work from my home life anymore. I hear from my employees more than my friends and family, and everything is a blur of work->game->work->sleep->work->game->work->sleep.
Hopefully I'll have this sorted out and have more...

Oh man there must be some sort of karmic balance going on and if that's the case then it's probably my fault because to me it's the entire opposite. Since I don't have a job days go by pretty much the same as yours only not doing anything other than the masters studies. It's awful.
Balance must be restored.

Oh I don't know man, sounds like cheating fate and that never ends up well... plus, it may sound swell right now just as much as your busy life sounds good to me, but after not so long, it gets old.
Believe me.

Well it appears that we'll likely be centralizing a command center. Now I get to play upper management, middle management, office management and office admin. YAY!
You have got to love small companies right?
I managed to get through 4 hours of meetings and 20 hours of interviews with 5 hours of sleep over a 29 hour stretch. Lots of good fun there.

Officially an "executive". What's that mean? Too much fucking work for what I get paid. My department isn't small enough to micro-manage, and not quite large enough to hire middle management, so I've compromised and brought in pseudo-management.
Either way, kill me, plz.

Thank you for the add !

Funny how we always get this glamorous vision of the executives... wait no, that was in the Mafalda comic books ages ago. Still, It's not all as cool as it seems sometimes from the outside is it.
Stress
Christmas always gets me down. Disadvantages of being a loner I guess.

So I quit smoking.
1 week later I'm smoking again. It's the only thing that keeps me sane. ._.

Ah beautiful stress. I have a perpetual knot of muscles at the base of my neck...

Management SUCKS - that's why I"m still technical despite being an old fart.
GL with it tho - it can be really rewarding (I guess) once you get over the employees and your customers and your vendors and all the crap you gotta put up with
