In a bit of a downer at the moment. Not depressed, just basically can't be arsed.
I think work is to blame. There's samplers that I need to make for a project, and they need to be ready for May/June. Now I've ordered in the parts I need, but there's stuff that we can't buy from approved suppliers, and that has to be bought using the project credit card, which I don't hold.
This has been dragging on since Christmas. I need one part to build a prototype, and I've just been told, if it doesn't work, then we'll have to think about some other way of sampling.
Fine.
Except. I'm on holiday for two weeks in May. This was booked before I was asked to make the samplers. They know I'm going away. So, basically, if they don't get their fingers out, they aren't going to get their samplers.
End of.
Why is this making me meh? Well, I really enjoy working on this, and it's just frustrating that it's other people holding things up.
I'd scream, but I can't muster the energy.

I sympathise completely. There is literally nothing more frustrating than being held up at work by other people.
Still waiting.
I'm on holiday in two weeks, but people still haven't got their fingers out.
The worst bit is there's a part that's needed, but official suppliers don't have it. The guy with the project credit card could have walked 200 yards and bought it, but rather than do that, he ordered online, increasing the delay.
