Hard Coding

I woke up this morning at four and knew that I would not be able to fall to sleep again. Or if I did it would be just in time to get about fifteen minutes into my cycle before a rough awakening. So, I got up and checked email and read blogs and other web stuff. I got a shower just before Lex got up and was at work at twenty to seven.

I've got this project that I'm doing everything but the coding on. So, today I did some coding. The final product is a web application and I wanted the folks I was working with to have a feel for how it will look. I wrote a demo of the first few web pages complete with some dynamic controls. I chose some horrifically bad implementation techniques that are more quick and dirty that I would usually ever consider.

I quit around twenty to six this evening when I got a call from the men who permit me to join in their fellowship. Before I left work I showed the results of my efforts to my MOR. I have to admit that it was mostly to rub his nose in the fact that he's not paying me enough. Funny how the moral high ground rarely impacts the paychecks.
