what's next?
Monday 24th of August we are invited for a meeting with our client. We arrive there at 9:45. The previous day, Sunday, I had worked all day to prepare the final reports for the finishing of the works and all the rest of papers.
The meeting is opened by the president of the bank (our client is/was a bank). He told us, with all the respect, our contract has been resided and that our work for the project has ended. Because we were not able to finish the project in time, because I don’t have enough experience…
After the meeting on the way back my boss was trying to comfort me: “They might have had this move in plans from the very beginning so that they should not have to pay our last bill.”
I felt bad that my first project ended like this… I was not sure how my bigger boss will receive the news.
At the office I tried to talk to my bigger boss: “Stop chasing me!!!! Can’t you see I am busy!?!?!?!?!!!! Talk to my assistant!” – Well sorry mam’ I’ve only thought that you entered our office to listen to our problems…
After a couple of hours she see me on the hallway: “Your supervisor told me of the meeting with the bank. Is ok!”
At the end I took the taxi to the bank to leave all the documents I had to leave at the end of the project. On the way the cab driver was telling me trigonometry formulas: “Which is the fundamental equation of trigonometry?”…”cos2α+sin2α=1”…”But this is not the fundamental one!” – I say. “…because this equation is based on what sin and cos means and as well on Pythagoras formula.” - “No take left here on Polona street – there are less cars”.
We ended up on a street that was repairing and only half of it was working. We enter on it cause was free, and mid through another taxi was coming from the opposite direction. My driver starts to swear. “Go back! Go back!” The other one no and no he waited half an hour to enter the street. we have to go back like 4 5 meters to let the other one pass by…. Now my driver is really pissed off! He starts to push out the street the signs that were restricting the circulation on the street, he yells at the workers: “You and your damn repairements – all town is a crater” – he was right about the last part!
We pass by a sign that was on my side: he tells me to push it! And I stretch the widow and I push it till it falls!: “Now you’re dead son of a bitch!”. Workers were looking puzzled….
Well I killed the sign!
I am feeling ok that, finally, this project ended.. it started to be really boring and very long. Almost too long!
What next? I hope they will give me a new project I hope they won’t put me again to do translations which is shit!
Faculty is finished! Now I am thinking what’s next.. should I enter the masters? Should I start thinking how to leave this FUBAR country?
Short term I am thinking how to move out of my parents’ and then how to make more money!
