November 30th 2012 - Day 85

I wish I could say my day was good, I really do. It came so close to being a good day too. Despite having editing work to finish in the morning, and photoshop work on and off all afternoon, I ended up spending the large part of the day with a massive (metaphorical) headache.
This is the time of year when the company gets very busy, because of some big recruitment website opening tomorrow, and so everyone was very busy. So I do appreciate the time the sempai took to give me some work, even if half of it was easy, and the other half was very difficult. In the end I had to spend that half watching him do it in some strange way that he seemed not to need to explain and then just had me leave it along in the end. And there was a moment towards the end of the day where the company christmas tree got broken out and set up, as was a large amount of food for the people who are no doubt staying overnight to work.
That being said, I really can't forgive the sempai for literally stealing the last hour of my life. Having finished all the work I had, I then had to sit there for an hour, with nothing to do. Despite my repeated asking if there was something I could do, the only thing he had me do was refresh the same bloody web page over and over again to make sure he'd gotten his work right. And then he eventually said I could leave. I have often joked about how some of the work moments are a waste of my life, but today is the first time I actually mean it. I had planned to try and gain some credit by repeatedly checking whether I didn't need to come in tomorrow to help with further preparations, but after that ending I decided they had bought enough of my time.
And I left my bloody umbrella in the office and only noticed when I got back. Christ I hope it doesn't rain on monday or I'm going to be pissed off.
