I am enjoying work, I am.
I am, however, so deeply overwhelmed and frustrated with the project I am working on. This is not because it is inherently problematic. It is because I dont know what I am doing. Learning is like trial by fire. Walk across the hot coals and figure out how the hell to get across with out permanently scaring your feet, but in this case--your own sense of competance and the respective capital and value your coworkers will presume of you moving forward.
Only 70% of the way through a project, I have now learned that there were questions I did not know to ask that I should have asked before I even started the project, and now- I will likely have to go back and redo what I have done.
It doesn't help with the rain outside, the fact that my dog is depressed because I am never home and that I had hoped to spend the weekend preparing for halloween, setting up my apartment and going for a good run.
I will survive this project, hopefully with at least a minimal sense of competance and if I am lucky a positive review of my work come monday morning. Until then, I am spending the weekend in my office.
Wish me luck. Feel free to call and say hello.
