Fuck you forever, (name of project)!
My project is FINALLY FUCKING FINISHED.
Jesus. The last two months of my life have been crazy. Filled with more OT, more corporate bullshit, and more stress than any other. But it's finished! God Damn!
I cannot even begin to express to you guys how relieved I am to have this thing done with.
I'm at home and the sun is still out! Holy fuck!
This is my first significant project where I was in a management position. Normally in QA, you get tired from the long hours at the end, you're sick of the product. But at the end of the day, you find a crash bug the day you're supposed to ship, it's no big deal. But this was different. It was my project. Every bug had me wondering how we could have possibly missed this stuff before. Sick days, nah. Optional overtime, no. I mean I could skip out. But it was my show and my ass on the line. At the end, I still liked the product, but I was actively sick of it. Today when we were trying to find final stop ship bugs... I may have ignored a couple of things that I saw. Whereas normally I am the most obsessive compulse bug writer of all time.
At this point I'm so happy to be done. The only thing that would ever induce me to go back in tomorrow and work on it more is if I heard about a bug that would blind any kid under eight or something. Even then... I might not go in.
I got the afternoon and tomorrow off, so I'm gonna hang out, drink beer, play video games, and possibly check myself into a mental asylum.
Monday I start working on the patch.
D'oh.
