It’s weird. Normally, I’m a guy who has little trouble getting by on little sleep. However, lately I’ve had to coordinate a lot of my work with the company IT center in Germany and some guys on the US east coast. Also, there was a lot of documentation I’ve had to read.
What this all means, basically, is that I’ve been working in two different time zones while living in a third, and it’s been messing with my sleep a lot. I feel like I’m constantly exhausted and when I’m at the office I have to sit around hours on end without having much of anything to do but wait.
On a more positive note, there will be national holidays next week and I’m going to be able to sleep in most of the time. Also, Jan Schwarz is finally coming back to Suzhou as well as two new interns who are arriving next week, bringing our number back up to four. What this means is basically that I’m going to be able to concentrate more on my work and hand stuff off to other people – one intern is definitely not enough around here. Also it’ll give me more stuff do to on the evenings and weekends.
Sunday, I’m going to spend in Shanghai and I’m very much looking forward to seeing that city some more. Anyway, that’s pretty much it for now,
-Jan
