Today was crap. Only made bearable by friends. I found out the problem with my circuit, only to realize more problems will soon surface.
The I had to attend a really stupid wasting-my-time meeting. The committee is filled with such incompetence I was struggling to control myself from bursting out. "What the hell is this?!" After all I am not the chairman hosting the meeting. 3 meetings this week!
All the other sub-groups were so pathetic in their planning, each didn't know what to do, or didn't do it right at all, the deadline is only 30 days away and there's nothing concrete that has been planned yet. The location not confirmed, the program is tatters, everything is all NATO. No Action Talk Only. I wonder why I have to attend these kind of nothing-achieved-at-the-end-of-it meetings with increasing frequency lately. Maybe because of my position? I think I will delegate a representative to attend these kind of meetings on my behalf to prevent any more wasting of my time. 2 hour meeting with nothing planned in the end. WTF.
My secretary had to constantly remind me to control myself. I wanted to bang my fist on the table and walk out of my conference room myself. Such incompetence is irritating and frustrating. I think we were giving the "attitude problem" impression to the rest. But what the hell was this? It's going to be a BIG event, about 400+ students and probably a hundred or so lecturers are going to be attending, and nothing done so far. And they wanted to push more tasks to others?! Talk about irresponsibility and in competency. Pathetic bunch of slobs who have no idea what they have to do and would do slipshod if they were told to. Someone is going to take the heat really BIG time when the event fails during that day.
It's going to be a longgggg day.
