Shit!

The week was pure torture. i was facing unmessurable amount stress at work that i was reduced to crying in the toilet.

No one was giving me any problem. They are nice, seriously. But,I had these 23 modules that i had to finish. initially it was supposed to be done by some outsourcing company but due to some miscommunication, i had to do it in the end. I could finish at least 4 modules per day earlier. But then, everytime i have almost completed one module, the damned users kept changing their requirements that it took me 1 and a half day to finish one module. And the changes kept happening everyday so i had to alter each module everyday. It got me so confused and I was running out of time. i could not finish all 23 modules. It was driving me nuts until i felt like smashing my computer at work.

Finally i couldnt tolerate it anymore so i spoke to my supervisor and she spoke to the boss and now, i have to finish 2 modules per day. Work reduced, yes but im still out of time, as it is taking me 1 and a half day to finish one module because of the constant changes in the requirements. Imagine finishing your work and someone comes along and tells you, hey, sorry, i forgot this one, pls add or hey, sorry, the requirements just changed, pls alter this or hey, this is wrong, i didnt tell you ah?

And mind you, the users are the 'gold' here. They are given top priority.

Damn shit! Now im reduced to 0 weekends. Yes, i get paid but i would rather not work on weekends than get paid. And the stress is more than i could tolerate.

Been listening to LINKIN PARK especially Numb and Nobody's Listening. Not bad,their music is superb. And with reduced decibel, they are pretty good..Nalin, now i understand why u listen to 'em. :-)
