Yeah, so, work is totally split between Woo! and Ugh! lately.

Woo! I have lots of little problems to solve, providing a lot of immediate benefit to the issues that have clear impact on our quality of product and our customer complaints. We have so much low-hanging fruit at IQE that it's silly to not make pie.

Ugh! Why do we keep planning on souffle? I am not longer in control of my professional destiny, which is unpleasant. Worse, I am not in control of my ability to contribute, which is frustrating. Sometimes, I wish I had it in my to just coast. Really.
