30+ Minute meetings.
20 Minutes fucking with a development environment that is subject and surrounded by mishaps...
LUNCH!
10 minute smoke break.
1 hr work.
30 minutes Q$A and new project requests.
20-40 minutes explaining things.
20-30 minutes miscelleneous questions.
20 minutes answering emails fucking the creative flow up.
30 minutes writing correspondence...
Drive home another 20 minutes.
What exactly was done during the day?
I am used to working 14 hours a day, and night without interruptions except to piss and eat.
With me when I am working only a few things matter.
The server and the creation.
Nothing else matters when in a "zone".

Dear Depressed,
Perhaps if you spent a little less time drowning yourself in self pity and subjecting the rest of the world to it, you would succeed. Despite of your horrible reputation, a reputable company gave you a chance, the chance you always wanted to prove yourself. Did it cross your mind this person went out on a limb for you and you repay the kindness with these ridiculous pity laden posts?
The fact is that you are completely grateful of the opportunity. You stay up all night drowning in self pity instead of getting some sleep so the next day at work you can actually comprehend the simple tasks that are being requested of you. How can every company that you have worked for have the same opinion and be wrong?
Wanting to leave early the 1st day, coming in late everyday, being a board potato, taking 20 cigarette breaks, being cocky and condescending to the other members of the team isn't going to get you the acceptance you ever so badly desire.
Employees are usually on their best behavior on the first few months. If this is your best behavior, who would want you to stick around so they can see the worst?
You ask, "What exactly got done during the day?" I'm sure that is exactly what they are wondering since 1 1/2 day for 2 bootlegged from another designer skyscraper banners and 1 entire day for an FPA is barely a full day's worth of work.
I hope this post will help enlighten you. Just my
Leslie
