I think I need a break.
From all the constant travelling on the road.
Yesterday, I came into work, feeling blur. A couple of emails were waiting for me, and I was trying to make sense of the drawings sent to me, in AutoCad. You know how those drawings are, with uncountable lines (don't forget the hidden ones too!)..and I always try NOT to ignore important lines on the drawings because for all I know, it could be something major on the structure itself.
I read the email statements, and it clearly stated that it's urgent, and has to go back to the client on the very same day.
So, I struggled. Trying to comprehend the drawings, making sense out of it, as well as trying to do my own drawings and also hopefully be able to come out with what was needed. Halfway doing it, I went online surfing, mind wandered, until another senior came to ask me to amend some other drawings and I totally forgot about my original task. So I went home, had dinner with the missus and then got an email notification. Apparently my senior send a back up plan to the client, which was supposedly my task. And then it struck me. Bad.
I forgot about it, totally.
Trust me, that was equivalent to getting hard cold lashing from anyone.
Sometimes, I get on the road, my mind wandered, and suddenly I forgot that I was driving. I'm not kidding. It's like for a minute, I can feel the wheel in my hands, and I would go like "Oh, I'm driving." Mind wandering can be pretty scary, come to think of it.
I wonder if that's how I got involved in an accident that day.
