      Put my feet up for a couple of days, and pretend that I'm catching up on my e-mail. (I'm really glad I use a "screen name" to post here)

      I wanna be a eunuchs developer! Pass me a bread knife!

                  Long coffee break, then long-lunch, then another coffee break, then go home early.

                  «There is a spectrum, from "clearly desirable behaviour," to "possibly dodgy behavior that still makes some sense," to "clearly undesirable behavior." We try to make the latter into warnings or, better, errors. But stuff that is in the middle category you don’t want to restrict unless there is a clear way to work around it.» Eric Lippert, May 14, 2008

                                      I'd either be thinking, I sure am glad I have an awesome job that I look forward to coming back to, or I'd be thinking, why am I wasting my life sitting in this cubicle, sifting through a couple hundred emails, catching up on git commits, and reviewing the latest JIRA bug reports?

                                        I'd take a coffee and then a second coffee. Then I'd read all mails and I'd wait the end of the day. Daily routine...

                                          Bore my colleagues to death with my vacation tales and photographs. That is, if I can catch them...

                                          I may not last forever but the mess I leave behind certainly will.
