PM'd cause I don't want to put links to malware downloads on the public forum. Although I think some links are in that FireEye report... Day is kind of blending together.

My manager has been trying to get me to rush a project to a deadline given by our finance team. We've had all kinds of external delays that keep pushing its progress. Now he wants me to finish the code changes by Friday, deploy them by next week, start doing the testing all of next week (yes during christmas week) and then doing the actual release the following week ("by Dec 28-30!"). One other problem is that we have a company-wide code "freeze" starting this week through Jan due to the holidays, where we aren't supposed to push any new changes.

Meanwhile he mentions that he agrees with this senior engineer dude in my org about how we should avoid crunch-style work, how it's bad for us and bad for our customers, and we shouldn't let ourselves get pushed into it.

Oh and then today he decided to announce to the team that he's taking PTO Friday through Jan 4.

This is on top of me already being scheduled to be on-call for pager duty from Christmas Day through New Years Day.

Sorry just felt like venting that fun stuff out.

You are right, as long as it doesn't mess with my internet connection to the computer in my sleep number bed - I'll be OK.

Going to have to do something about this sooner or later. This is the house across from the one I am working on.

The house is next to it, this is just the worse part of the lot. They have at least 4 families living there. 2 in the house, 1 in the trailer, and one in the camper.

YIKES!

I've lost track, is the house you are working on yours? If so, are you fixing it up to move into or to rent or to sell?
