Visible to anyone in the world

The number of units and TMA questions that I have to do by mid/early June. As of tonight that number is now 7. Good?

I suppose, but I've learned the hard way to expect that the simplest of things will shower me in bile before kicking me in the soft-parts.

Take this week:

  • I'd over-coped—4 men for a 3 man job
  • There was a chance that I'd get a long-awaited holiday
  • Exams were on, always an all hands-on-deck
  • We could cope with any one being off

Guess what happened?

Yup, all 3 were off.

I pulled a 13 hour shift Monday, did all the setting up for the exams by my lonesome, and, when one of my minions limped back in, he was weeping sickness from both eyes. I sent him home, I still have to think about what my hands are doing.

But, there can be no denying that 8 > 7, for N is a well-ordered set.
