The remaining of my normal week has been filled with a mixed bag. On Thursday I was told I can not have anymore overtime, which I think is due to the economic slowdown we are going through… at any rate it is good and bad. It’s good in the part that I am going to have a lot more time to do things as I’m gaining about seven or so hours extra a week now. What stinks about this however; is I have been working overtime for so long that I have come to budget that in as part of my pay. This equates between 20 - 25% pay cut per week depending on the overtime I would have normally received.
I think I can budget around this, but only the next couple weeks will really tell me if I can or not. One thing I have thought about doing is looking through Rent-A-Coder and seeing if there are any jobs I could pick up and make some extra dough that way. I did that for awhile last spring and it was pretty cool but it took up too much extra time,lol, I think I’ll have extra time now.
On Friday night Emery came over and him, Vince, Lucas, Mason, and I all played DOTA.. and it was probably the most frustrating five hours I have ever spent. Lucas, Mason, and I where on a team against Vince and Emery and we never won a single match =( . After finally giving up on playing I started working on my user library again, it has been awhile since I looked at it and I was disappointed in myself as it took about fifteen minutes to find where I had left off in my code. I basically spent the rest of the evening familiarizing myself with the library and making sure I had left no functions unfinished. Hopefully after today i will be done with the base library. I also want to start working on making some eye candy design for my blog today as well.
PS : I bought this shirt on Woot on Thursday.
