The life of the insane
If the definition of insanity is doing the same thing over and over again and hoping for different results,* then that is the story of my life right now.
At work it involves technology that has become completely dysfunctional. I’ve stayed back at work and sat here with the IT heavy weights upstairs sharing my desktop observing and trying to fix things, only next time, it isn’t fixed. We’re all just about ready to go on strike, or hoping the system completely falls over and we can’t produce the products that generate the revenue (at the moment we are nursing them through) so that then they will finally have to throw some more resources at the technology. But in the end, it’s actually not my responsibility, and I wash my hands of it (without the insanity of Lady Macbeth on that particular point).
Outside of work, well let’s just not talk about that, because there it is probably closer to being truly insane.
I am looking forward to this looong weekend however. Hope you all have a very pleasant one.
