work

and work.  Today is release day, so that means chaos and extra work.  Usually, my job is pretty chill...I go in at 7:15-7:30 and get out at 3:30.  That's right, 3:30, I love that.  Sure it's chaos in between (we're an 'agile' team) those hours but I almost always get out on time.  But on release days in which I am part of (people take turns)...it's crazy.  Today, I worked until 6 with just a break of 20 minutes to bike home (I can work from home) and now (at 9:30pm) I am technically working (they are deploying)...and usually releases only take around an hour to check out.  But today's...developers were still making changes at 4pm.....of release day... not cool.  QA actually wants to test code before releasing! As you should!  Especially because today is a big release with many features added/changed that affects many third parties... We will see, but I think this will be a long one..... tomorrow, I will be sleepy! but it's friday!! so I can't complain! well I can, but I won't! :)

Update:  it's 12:20am and they are barely gonna deploy...my manager has instructed me to go to sleep cause, I quote, 'I want someone with braincells in the office tomorrow'....haha sleep deprived people are funny...
