Work shell shock
Gary
Maybe I've been on support development for too long, or maybe I've been at my current company for too long, but on the quiet days, when I'm not interrupted with an "emergency", I find myself wondering where it is. Last week there were three emergencies that I recall, where it had to be fixed sooner than ASAP. The week previous was similar, and so was the one before that. Next week, I'm supposed to start work on a project, but I know I'm going to keep expecting there to be a "stop everything, we're all going to die" emergency. I do sometimes have to ask myself if this is healthy. I mean, this weekend, I went to sleep on Friday and woke up on Saturday, 1pm, still exhausted. Then Saturday night, I couldn't get to sleep because I had too much running through my head, somewhere around 6:30am, I crashed, and woke up at 10am to start work on the comic. That's another random thing I've noticed, when I have no time to do a comic, I seem to end up doing really elaborate comics, like today's. It's really kind of strange to me. Do any of you do similar things when exhausted or in a rush, things that are counter to the situation you're in? Let me know in the comments under the comic on the website. I am happy that I got this comic done, and I'm also quite happy with how it turned out. It captures how I feel most days, and the coloring really works for me. Now that it's done, I can move on to working on my Wizard's Chicago Comic Con exclusive comic. This will be a short run comic, maybe only five hundred printed, and it'll only be available at my booth at Wizard's Chicago Comic Con (see the banner on the side of my site for the link to the convention). I'm thinking of offering the comic for three dollars, so I can give people two dollar bills back as change. We'll see how that goes. I have to get change before the show, and hopefully, a bank can get me two dollar bills.
