Ulcers and Upgrades...
Posted by ajt on Tue 14 Feb 2006 at 21:21
The past few days have been somewhat stress inducing...
- Failed Informix/SAP restore at work ate up a lot of the weekend.
- At home an Etch upgrade broke lots of things, now mostly fixed.
- Idiots in head office can't design a decent web site for love or money, and are now expecting me to do most of the work.
- Better half is depressed.
- We've had no snow, just cold damp weather for weeks...
I've now got a mouth full of ulcers - a sure sign of stress, and multiple incompatible deadlines at work.

Don't know how Tapas will help my better half specifically, but taking her out is probably a good idea.
A holiday is a jolly good idea. We were even talking about that on the way home from badminton last night.
Prioritising is a good idea, but alas I suffer the bane of doing multiple jobs within the company, which means I have effectivly multiple bosses: Web - Linux/AIX - Informix/SAP... At the moment I have to do something or I'll fall to pieces.
