Yes, it’s crunch time again (still).

This means that Julio first calls everyone in the morning to waste their time for an hour or two, then he arrives late, and, in a furious blitz of disordered hyperactivity, manages to grind all previous productivity to a complete halt for the afternoon while simultaneously rendering obsolete any work done in the morning and changing everyone’s priorities. In the process, he lectures about initializing variables and programming techniques. (*laf*). Then, when he’s wasted everyone’s time for almost the entire day, he starts subtly feeling out who is willing to stay late or work weekends because the workshop is just around the corner and we really need to get this stuff done and “out the door.”

Ah well, I’m sure tomorrow will be better. Maybe someone will bring a gun so I can shoot myself.
