My brain is dead. I think it’s because I have nothing to do around here right now. If I could take a day off and just write, I would. I just can’t right now because I’m waiting to hear back about defects found in testing.

That’s the thing about work: even if you have no work to do, you’re supposed to look like you’re doing work. The appearance of working is as important as the work itself. It’s actually kind of exhausting.

Sometimes I wonder if I’m so lazy that it’s just that I can’t work for more than about 4 hours a day. Or if I’m that efficient that I can get things done in a day when people think it’ll take 2 or 3 or 4 days. Or it might just be that I do things badly and they need more time to catch up.

If I knew I could go home when my work was done, would that make it easier for me to focus?

All right. I’m going home ‘early’ today because there’s no point in sticking around if I don’t have anything to do.

I guess I could write my MCU Exchange letter...

Alas, it's one of those things you have to do as a society, pretty much, just state what full time is going to be through legislation or widespread collective bargaining.
