Hey, before you go to bed, that thing that’s bothering you from today, it’s ok. It will be nothing soon. It’s just advertising. Let it go. Sleep well. We all have one, so let’s all release it on the count of 3.

Completely stumbled and lost my way during a pitch presentation recently. Am convinced I made no sense at all for a good couple of mins of rambling. Can’t stop cringing at the thought of it. Need to remember that it’s not important. And remember all the other times I’ve messed up and it hasn’t mattered. Maybe one day I’ll just stop messing up 😂

We’ve all been there. I totally blanked once mid-analogy during a pitch. It was cringe and I always remember it, but we’ve all been there. Sh*t happens and we’re human.

*Sealed Classes in Java 17*

The sealed class allows one to describe which class or interface can extend or implement this class or interface. In short, we can put restrictions on who can use this class or interface. Suppose we have Student abstract class and if we make it a sealed class and permit only ScienceStudent and CommerceStudent to extend the class, then only those classes will be able to extend the Student and other classes will get an error if they try to extend it.

Wow…covid is really over. I live in a rural area where we knew covid was happening but it never really impacted the community or daily life. However when I’d go into the city it was very very obvious there were huge life impacts and fear. I just went into the city for the first time in about 3 months and it’s like covid never happened. It makes me wonder how many other things that have drastically changed (like wfh and hand sanitizer) will go back to normal as people go back to normal.

I joined a new firm October 1 & billed a 200 hour month. With my current workload, I am expecting to meet or exceed my prorated hours target. When I accepted the position, future bonuses were discussed, but given ramp up, etc. I didn’t think to ask about a prorated bonus for my stump year. Has anyone dealt with this before? I hate to ask & sound greedy, but I relocated (at a pay cut) for this position & a bonus would really help going to my mortgage payments I’m still carrying for my old condo.

Looking for practical advice on improving my attitude to work.

So imagine an imaginary scale where 0 is the worst piece of work a studio could produce and 10 is the best possible outcome.

As an animator working in an agency, I normally end up involved in projects towards the end, so by the time I get my hands on a project I can add between 1 and 3 depending on how much effort I put in.

If a project is a 3 when I get it, how do I summon the energy to make it a 6 that I could to make a 7 a 10?
