And so it ends. And so it begins!
Tuesday, March 30th, 2010 10:03 pmSo last week, I was relaxed and doing almost nothing at work.
This week, I've been to the client site every day so far, and again tomorrow, trying to get done deployment and assorted emergency bugfixes before I leave (incidentally, my last day of work comes just before the Holy Week four-day weekend).
This does not feel like a good plan! I feel like by all rights I should be doing nothing by now, because my successor would be doing everything while I oversee to make sure that he knows what he's doing. But uhhhh at least I left behind as detailed instructions as I thought polite. And some docs. And a couple of rambly emails spelling out some of the less obvious project structure (the messier parts which I'd inherited, eeek). And I sat down with my teammate and walked him through some of the more complicated stuff (including some messy bits which... I coded. eek) And so. Well. I did what I could, and I hope that things stay well as I leave.
BECAUSE I AM STARTING MY NEW JOB WITH DREAMWIDTH OH YES I AM. And I'm pretty stoked (Even if right now I'm too focused on my current job to really start planning for my new one).
I thought I was all ready to start the day after I left my old job, but I'm grateful for
mark's and
denise's advice to took the weekend off, because after the rush of putting out the last minute fires of this week, I'm looking forward to some brief downtime before bouncing back to full capacity.
Plans for the weekend include fixing up
fu -- at least an icon *G*
Plans for next month? Many :)
