For the past three days I have been trying to work
on
a project and haven't been able to for one reason
or
another... the computers aren't working, the
database
I need to access old information from is down,
someone
needs something done immediatly for a different
project that is on a tighter timeline (and I might
as
well help them since I can't do what I need
to!!!!!!!, of course I would still help either
way...
), or I'm waiting on someone else for
information I need before I can go further.
I'm about to lose my mind. This project would take
me
maybe 3 days if I could just work on it and must be
done by May 17th... which is getting closer by the
minute.
The only benefit is that I have been catching up on
some training type reading that I haven't been able
to
do because I've been to busy. But I'd rather be
doing
the work I need to. I feel like I am wasting time
and
money sitting here the way I have been. Yesterday I
got so frustrated I left an hour early and went and
did laundry, just so that I could say I accomplished
something yesterday.
