This morning was really good. Had a good breakfast (omelet). I got to give good news and had a good start on a task at work. I watched some co-workers give a nice presentation in the company all-hands. And then things went pear-shaped.
My good start was not so good. I hit road-blocks and just don’t feel like i was making good progress. OK fine that is part of programming, right ? One step forward two steps back, why the heck does THAT work, it shouldn’t work and why doesn’t that work, I thought that would…arghhh?!? A bit frustrating.
Then a couple issues were discovered in code that is in production – not that anyone will see it because it is reachable only from the mobile app and their code is NOT in production. But I don’t know why that is happening either!! More than a bit frustrating.
It seems to be a CSS issue (how fun!) but it is in a webview – and I don’t know how to test / check for that. Also, it isn’t my code – but I can’t let my employee flounder – but he doesn’t know what it is either. So we will have to throw ourselves on the mercy of other employees who are more specialized in front end stuff. I only hope right away they say YES I know exactly what needs to happen. A girl can dream, right?
