tsaikoWork has been driving me crazy.
First, it was part time job 1. Last summer I was told to stop working on a project because it had run out of funding. Cue much flailing on my part, because I had budgeted for that money and the sudden loss did not make me happy. I made it by working extra hard at my internship.
A few weeks ago, the project found more money. Suddenly I needed to be working on the project OHMYGODRIGHTNOWWHYISITNOTDONEYET? So in the midst of doing analysis and getting my poster ready, I was working 10 hours a week on this. I'm almost done with my section, but there is at least one section left. At least it pays well.
Part time job number 2 is a job that came from my internship work. It turned into a fairly low hour part time job. The problem is that it's project based, so the work load is feast or famine. I'm either hauling tail to get stuff done or left with nothing to do.
Guess what this week has been like? Yeah. I got a call Monday asking if I could get a proposal together outlining some of the GIS I'd done for previous projects. Okay. That's fine. I don't mind writing a page or two and adding some maps. No problem.
Oh did we mentioned we wanted it in three days? And that it had to be 10 pages long? Single spaced? You can do that right?
Urg.
I did manage to get it done. In fact, I had it done it two days and it is now out for comments/editing right now. Still, not exactly what I had planned on doing this week.
At this rate, I'm never even going to start writing my damn thesis, much less finish it. -_-
