An Update On The Author

I have my desk job, for which I am grateful. I mean, I write it in every time I sign onto my laptop in the morning. Fulfillment comes from completing tasks, surely. But as customer support, fulfilling those tasks isn't always easy.

I've had someone ask me if I'm new today. They told me, "we're all new once," so it was okay.

I don't have a laundry list of complaints. I share only to offer a taste of what I had to listen to among other things. And, while I'm happy to work, work sometimes makes me unhappy. It is what it is, they often tell me.

Don't Work With People If You Don't Like Disappointment

But is it? Is it really what it is? Seems to me that the saying, "No one is an island", came from someone who didn't have one! I kid to get your attention.

I expected to be able to launch this project, many times over. It's almost impressive how many times I referred to it, shared invite links, and added what I was writing to advertise the project here on this site.

I even mentioned once or twice, to a few people, it would be this day, then that day. Yesterday I learned, it wouldn't be possible to launch it today. I think I don't even want to mention when it will launch now, because there's a good chance something prevents it if I do.

Never announce your plans! Be as vague and unspecific as humanly possible. Even then, some unforeseen thing while wrench its way in. At least, you can rule out, it wasn't because you leaked the release date.
