Our department hired another programmer. Finally! But guess what that means for me--more training...
At first, it was going to be the first two weeks of September. He lives in Costa Rica; even though we have some really cool electronic tools for collaboration remotely, sometimes there's nothing better than in-person training. He came up for a couple of weeks; a couple of weeks I knew would be kinda crazy: I wouldn't get to telecommute my one day a week; I'd spend evenings and weekends doing entertaining I wouldn't otherwise. Well, while he was here, and based on some circumstances that worked out well, we decided that he'd stay another week. Really, really good for the work progress; but...not so good for getting back to my normal routine.
