success stories

[seventhe]

1. I have figured out, through some intense reflection during a boring meeting I wasn't involved in but had no chance to escape, that the answers I actually need to manage my project are an entire layer underneath the questions that I have been asking. (WORKCEPTION????) I've been asking for targets; what I actually need is a more clear fundamental understanding of the way work is supposed to flow from conception into production, and the role my project plays in the entire process, where communication goes and where priorities are. There isn't a process, by the way, and that's why I always feel so goddamn lost, and why even asking for clear targets isn't going to fix the mess I'm wading through. I actually need to go deeper.

I've set an appointment with the visiting Overlords on Monday and I plan to basically bang heads against a table with my newfound understanding of the situation I am in until someone cries uncle and gives me what I want.

2. I just emailed my advisor. I am back in the game. Thesis complete and Masters Degree by spring semester 2013.

Because fuck everything.

3. I am super stressed at the moment. :(

4. Icon (DW) has never been more relevant.

That is an excellent revelation.

You are going to win. Because you are a boss at life. And there is always a box of wine to make you feel like a boss when you're not.

I'm glad there's a light at the end of the tunnel of work shit that was crushing you. *offers vodka to numb the pain*

Yay for good realizations!

I will cheer as much as you need for thesis, and then when you're done, we are getting so goddamn drunk together it will last for days. My sworn word.
