It's been more than a month since my last post. The past month has been incredibly busy for me at work. It was actually really frustrating, as I was having to do other people's jobs. Everything, including researching the current solution, looking at the potential impact, coding the solution, figuring out how to test it, testing it, and getting it into production was all up to me. Though I did this all at my previous job, so I knew what to do, it felt like a different situation here. Whereas before, it was understood that I was supposed to do all these things, because there was nobody else, here there were people who were being paid to do the things they were simply not doing. Or, they were doing it, but dragging it out for months, and the work in the end was far from complete. In the end, I just did it all. I don't want to work with them anymore. It reminds me of team projects back in school, where basically I did everything as well. It's not that I'm a control freak who wants to take over everything. I'm really happy for people to do their part if they can do it. Otherwise, I'm having to constantly fix my code when edge cases and something new shows up that we didn't know about. Accountability is really lacking with some of the people I work with.
Apart from that, I've been spending my free time at home playing "Use Map Settings" StarCraft maps. Specifically, I've been playing, and beating "20k hydras" and "20k dragoons". This is a map I used to play, more than 10 years back, when I used to play StarCraft regularly. Feels nice to finally beat it after all these years.
In addition, I've been watching anime. I discovered a little gem called "My himouto Umaru". It's about a shut-in like me. I was so inspired, that I went out and bought the same snacks she was eating.
