Oh, the things I have to do..

I've come to realise that I'm not the only one.
All designers are as fickle-minded, and indecisive, as I am. And what a bad habit that is.
For the past month I've been working, I've been doing the same detail drawings over and over again. The same material specifications list. Everyday, with changes. Every time I'm done, there are new changes to be made. I've probably wasted a whole forest worth of papers.
I'm beginning to get what my dad meant. There isn't a limit to creativity and every idea seems better than the last. But how long can you keep changing your designs? Sooner or later, deadline looms and you probably haven't gotten any further than when you started. Which is what's happening now. The main designer keeps changing his designs, and material selections, we can barely keep up.
I have no idea what went on during the brief meeting with the boss today, but I heard a lot of loud voices, everyone came away looking grim/frustrated/tensed, and told me to come for work tomorrow.
I'm like "Whaa-t?"
I can't, because I've already promised Nut's mom I'll work at an event.
And that sucks because I don't want to be making excuses for not being able to do something. And somehow, thats what it sounded like; an excuse.
So I worked OT instead, and reprinted all the drawings for amendments on Monday.
It took me an hour and a half to print all the drawings, so you can imagine what we would have to do for the next couple of days. I foresee a lot of OTs indeed.

Think I'm going to crash now. Work's at 5am.
Sadly, I'm not kidding.
The things I do for money.

That sounded kind of wrong.
