Yesterday I finished up some notes I was developing regarding the in-house training was taking. The training isn't done yet, but my notes are! I'll be meeting with an internal tech writer, so my thoughts can get piped into the final results.
I'm feeling useless at work again. The testing from last week is over, and I'm at loose ends. We do more testing again starting tomorrow, I think, so that's good.
I asked Gus to give me something useful to do, and I got plugged into the task of verifying some deferred CARs (corrective action reports). Looking at some of those, it only highlights the fact that I still have very little idea of what I'm doing here. It's frustrating. I need code to write. Something to get me into the action...
On the home front, I did get the Simreal taxes worked out. Thankfully, my expenses and amortized deductions balanced out the income, so it won't damage my personal tax picture any more than it already is. Next weekend, taxes, bill-paying, and a test of my budget to see how it's working.
I got a great start on Chapter 9, Power Transmission, this weekend. It will be a larger chapter, as opposed to the tiny Chapter 8, Joints. I was thinking of merging the two, but that would make a huge chapter... so I don't know yet.
Haven't really had any action from my reviewers yet, but I do hear that they are looking at stuff. It's hard to find the time to review, I understand. It's certainly hard to find the time to write!
