Enjoying my last days at my company. No real pressure...except the one I generally create by procrastinating. We are in the middle of a huuuge mismanaged project. Lots of money...but no one is taking a step back to think.
So here are people, reinventing the wheel, rushing full speed till they hit a dead end, making a quick decision, rushing full speed in yet another...and then another roadblock. All the while, I'm doing nothing. Just waiting on them to spin their wheels and get tired. The whole project should take about 3 weeks. We are already into our 3rd month!!
"The rarest sense is common sense" - I can't believe how true it is in the corporate world. If only people could think and plan before they act. Oh well, it all pays the same (if not more) :-) Maybe I can help inject some sense when I get a chance.
Meanwhile, I'm planning to visit Darden next week to finalize some Financial aid issues. Figured I won't be able to attend without the dinéro ;-) Plus will get a chance to check out some apartments etc.
It's gonna be a nice summer. It is really the first time that I have had some time to reflect and take a moment to enjoy my success. And sometime next week, I'll have the gather the courage to tell the local university about my decision.
