Update On Yesterday’s Drama

Oh, with all my personal paranoid delusions I forgot to bring up the subject of the mandatory meeting.

Basically, my boss took MJ’s AMPFM project and split it up four ways so we each have a piece and now MJ is downright chipper. Apparently, they want to do testing in February so as soon as I get back from vacation, I need to get my ass on my pieces which appear to be no pieces of cake.

Anyway, after 30 minutes, the boss got up and left. However MJ and FW kept Lurch and I in there for another 30 minutes as they discussed…well, I don’t really recall as I seem to have blanked out for a bit. Afterwards, MJ made Lurch and I sit in her cubicle and watch while she showed us were the documentation is located on the “K” drive. (I have since discovered I don’t have access to the “K” drive.) She made us sit there for 2 hours as she yammered on and on about stuff I’m not going to retain until I’ve read the documentation and played with the applications involved.

My brain appears to have shut off during this period of time as I cannot seem to stay awake. I feel like at any moment my head is going to fall forward and slam into the desk. If I blink too long, my eyes won’t open again. I was wide awake when I went into the 9am meeting and now I can’t stop yawning.

So, the drama appears to be over and I’m really still not sure what any of yesterday’s drama was about except I now suspect it was all about MJ wanting other people to work on the project and make it a priority.

By the way, even though testing will begin in February, it’s still not scheduled to go live until sometime in 2006. In fact, my project is scheduled to go live in February, though I suspect that will be pushed back.

Ironically, this place is still saner than the last place.
