I had my last workday of the year, and I finished it successfully
Today I woke up a bit late, around 8:45 AM. Because of that, my morning was fast and busy. However, I still managed to finish my morning routine on time and had an opportunity to join our morning meeting. The meeting was without the team lead because he was absent until around 2–3 PM, so the deputy team lead was responsible during that time. During the meeting, the deputy team lead mostly wanted to have casual conversations, but the lead developer started asking questions about tasks and discussing them. Eventually, we got involved in work-related topics. Honestly, the meeting didn’t last long — about twenty minutes in total — but we could have used that time just to relax and take a short break from work worries.
During the day, everything was quiet. I finished my detailed report about my code analysis and tested several things on the dev server. After that, I shared my report and test results in my work ticket. I do have some doubts that someone will carefully check it, because everyone is already in a New Year mood and nobody really wants to spend time on such reports. To be honest, I’m sure that even if I had done nothing that day, nobody would have asked me about it.
In general, I successfully finished my last workday of the year. Even our CEO was satisfied with the work results. He talked about them during our New Year party and shared the results. As far as I remember, the company earned more money than usual, and it was a record in the company’s history.
In the evening, I decided to stay at home because the temperature was around –15 degrees and there was a bit of a blizzard. Instead of going for a walk, I watched YouTube. As usual, I watched farm girls from the USA — now I follow two different farm channels. I also watched some shorts, and they completely sucked me in. I just couldn’t stop watching, because YouTube kept showing me more and more videos. Honestly, it felt a bit awful — I wasted a lot of time.

During the day, everything was quiet. I just finished my detail report about my code analysis and tested some moments in the dev server. After I shared my report and test results in my work ticket. I also have some doubts about someone checked it. Because everyone have New Year mood, and nodody doesn't want to spent time for that report. Also I was sure, even if I just spent the time without work, nobody was asked me about it.
Generally, I finished my last workday of this year, successfully. Even our CEO was satisfied about work results. He talked about it and made results in our New Year party. Since, they could earn more money than as usual. And if I remembered correctly, it was record in company life.
At evening, I decided spent time in home. Because the weather temperature around -15 degrees and a bit blizzard. Instead of go for a walk, I watched my youtube channels. As usual, I watched those farm girls from USA. Now I have two channels about USA farms, first and second. Also I watched some shorts, and they just involved me. I just couldn't stop watching. All the time, youtube show me videos over and over. It was a bit awful, I killed enough time.
