Purchase Failure

Each year, Momoko and I use the same version of tax software to do our taxes. Her idea was for us to alternate years in purchasing the software. That way we can both use the same software, and pay only half the cost each every 2 years.

This year Momoko asked me to buy the software. Now that is not fair. I bought it last year. She told me that she would buy it if I could produce a receipt of my purchase.

Luckily, I bought the thing online. It only took a minute to find the exact day I bought the software, and when it shipped. Fail. I think Momoko should now buy the software for the next two years.

The Great Escape

We needed to deliver some new software to the customer tomorrow. My team mate stayed up late the previous night finishing the code. So I came in early today to get the release ready.

I found some problems. Luckily my team mate woke up and fixed them. I got the software assembled in time for my noon deadline. Then I needed to switch gears and work on another task.

It seems everybody needed help from me today at work. Don't they know I am busy and was already distracted by putting out the new software. I wanted to leave a 3:00PM because I got in so early. However I was not able to break away until 5:00PM.

Ouch. I got to practice the quick getaway from work a little more.
