I’m back at “the worlds largest chip maker” working on the same team as before. Same project. Same desk.
As usual, my team lead was on vacation for my first day. This has become a trend. The last time I started the contract, it was just before Christmas.
I was asked to fix a problem on my first day, before I even had access to TFS. “Ready to jump back in the fire?” “Sure.” “Can you take a look at this… and figure it out before noon?” “Yup. I’ll take a look…”
And I figured it out. The XML files are not backwards compatible. Quick chat with the user and we were back in business. My boss even noticed the quick resolution. Always a plus.
Some days it is really good to go back and do it all over again.
