Strange conclusions.

I've been working for about a month on a job that initially had little appeal for me. The work was inconsequential, had development practices that were more than primitive, had inexperienced, although very pleasant and likable folks on the team and was far below the rarified atmospheres of sophisticated companies in places like Paris, Seattle and San Francisco. 

However, Today is a Sunday evening and rather than dreading Monday I am quite looking forward to it. Over the last week I have introduced a sort of Scrum-Light to the Microsoft Project driven development practices. I've been able to show my manager the benefits of using Code-First on an Oracle database, just to keep from having to use that awful PL/Sql developer shyte. I have finished tasks that were in the project plan as n days in literally n minutes and the place is situated right next to a first class restaurant to boot! What the heck is wrong with that???
