I had full intentions of riding 20 miles tonight but since someone on my team decided not to give me enough notice, I ended up staying at work 30 minutes later than expected which caused me to have to sit in traffic on the way home. I'm going to vent about this for a second..... 2 people are attending the same exact training on Wednesday/Thursday which has been scheduled for months. Apparently the instructor sent them some homework to do before the class, part of that is getting feedback from their supervisor on specific topics. So one person emailed me their questions for me to answer last Tuesday, asking if I could get them to her prior to the class. No problem-that's 1 weeks worth of notice. The other person sends it to me today at 4pm, not even saying anything about the late notice. I was not a happy camper. Even more so because 75% of my day turned into discussions about plans that weren't even on my radar to discuss today, which kept me from even starting a project that has a deadline of Friday. There are a ton of meetings this week which is making it hard enough to meet that deadline without having to work long days everyday. So considering I have a bootyload of meetings on Tuesday, I figured I needed to get answers back to her today to not tack one more thing onto my Tuesday list. My initial instinct was to respond telling her that I would give her feedback had she sent it to me in a timely manner, but since that didn't happen, she would be out the info....but obviously I can't do that being a team lead. I ended up giving her her feedback (which wasn't as detailed as the other person's) and put a note at the bottom telling her that I would appreciate if in the future she would allow more time for me to respond. UGHHHHHH!
Anywho! I only ended up going on a 10 mile bike ride. I was going to do a workout when I got home but was starving and need to do laundry and dishes still so my workout is not happening. The rest of the week better not be as hectic as today was. It sucks way too much of the life out of me :-/
