like a bat outta hell

That last hour was torturous. It was like everyone kept coming back with little adjustments. And more little adjustments. And more--oh, no, wait, this is a BIG ADJUSTMENT. Which was not in the initial spec.

CRAAAAAP.

Admittedly, I spent most of that last hour (okay, it was closer to 2 hours) walking my colleague through my work so he had an idea of what he might be landed with next week. And then he wanted to exclaim over the illogicity of a chosen action for ten minutes, while I was trying to get on with the work that needed doing.

*sigh*

But I made it out. Just after the boss, who leaves around 5:30pm on a Friday (this is Sydney corporate; that's pretty unusual). And he confirmed that there's work coming up, and I'll have a job for at least the next couple of months.

I'm good with that.

Ack. Must remember to put my time in for month end!

More work is good. Is your work often in a state of flux?

I've been contracting for the last year, and this job is an ad-hoc one where I generally enjoy the work and the people and location, but it sometimes gets down to tight deadlines...

But yes, more work is always good...
