rfc716828077y@moortuvivens Already do that sometimes in my spare time, but thank you. :)
@PonySlaystation Thanks! :D -
rfc716828077y@AlexDeLarge Of course I can. :D
Bear with me, it's Saturday morning and I was not fully conscious at that time. Still not sure about now.
@CallMeAny Far too much honor. (Although I must say, I'd be interested how he'd react.) However, I'm glad you like it. :) -
devnope5697yDo you like burnout? Because the content f your poem sounds like a job, that gets you burnt out..

rfc716828077y@devnope You're right.
That's what my job felt like at the worst times, not long ago.

A Monday morning poem
I enter the bureau, feeling all relaxed and well,
my colleague looks up:
"Abandon all hope, welcome to hell."
This indeed, he doesn't say,
his face only twists a little in dismay:
"I need that schematic, did you finish it yet?
And there also some tests I'd like to get -
how was your week-end by the way?"
I start my computer, don't remember what I say ...
I grab some coffee, half a day is gone,
the PM pressures: "I want that asap done!"
I am cluttered in tasks and bullshit, too:
"Go fuck you right now - yes, I meant you!"
I don't say what I like to, I mentally punch a wall,
I crank some more code out and git-commit it all.
Some devRant on the lunch-break, some shallow talk,
I leave the building and take a short walk.
My mind rotates, I cannot enjoy the scenery now,
I return to my desk, and figure out what to handle and how.
But my plans are crashed by a colleague dashing in:
"I need you to do a test setup! I need to begin -"
I do the setup, I do some other stuff,
At the end of the day I feel totally rough,
Work is piling up even more -
"Tomorrow", I think and close the door.
At home, I just flop on on my bed -
I should be learning instead ... -
with some pizza and chill.
I think about sleeping, I hope that I will.
...
It is now Friday,
my brain is fried, too.
I am finished with this poem - how about you? :)
