Workload Ambush!!!

So I take a break from making tedious measurement. Well, not really tedious since it's a new chip design & can't hurt that it's on the most expensive part we produce(thus far). Each of these parts are worth like $20,000!!!! And I'm holding six of 'em in my hand!!

Anyways, here I am testing these parts by hand. Ideally we wanted to measure them on a test system... but that involves other people (i.e. Not the little department composed of my & my manager). So one dude was suppose to show us how to write the program (i.e. vectors) & another dude to write the program.

So Gaj is taking a water break from these retarded measurements - when all of a sudden program dude calls me. "So I hear there isn't enough test time with you?? I thought we were done?!" I'm like "yeah, that was for our older parts not the new 20G parts". blah, blah, blah... "Vector dude is downstairs... let's talk to him". Gaj - "okay?".

Vector dude's taking to other Administrator dude. And the ambush begins.
"So what do you need??"
gk-"um... i need this from Vector dude & this from Program dude".

"You need to do this & this.." "I've done that, so when you get this come to me with that."
gk-"um... yeah, but what about..."

"Well, yes & no. So yes.. got that?"
gk-"um... okay??"

"So yes, & there - so you have everything undercontrol right?"
gk-"um... okay? but what about..."

"Yeah, just get blah & blah & then go blah!"
gk-"um... okay?"

"Great, it's settled then... you have everything you need to get the job done!"


Long story short... Gaj was ambushed to do everyone's work!! Grrrr - the life of an intern!!! These manager type dudes (Administrator, Vector & Program) cut the middle man (i.e. my boss) & stuck me with this huge project! Grrrr.

Whatever man!!! This is the Year of Gaj! And it's not going to hold me down!!

Later my manager comes in... "yeah, so... if you want to do overtime & get these parts done - it's cool." I'm like "okay, cool." Thinking that's cool - my boss isn't pushy - flows with the wind, so it's all good. I'm like "yeah, so did you take to Administrator dude??" "Grrr. Yeah, whatever, don't worry about them - they gave me crap too". lol - glad to know I'm not the only one who got ambushed!!

Oh well... Looks like I'm gonna miss class today!! But should I go home for the O.C.??? I would: IF I HAD SEEN LAST WEEKS!!! GRRRR - stupid VCR!

Maybe I'll just let the VCR record it - until I get the episode from SARS. (Dear SARS, you'd better read this & post the O.C. for me - grrrrr.) But only when you have time - p.s. good luck on exams.
