Stress and Deadlines

I have a deadline for a client at the end of the month (Friday) but my boss has now told me I have to attend a meeting in London on Thursday and Friday.
So my remaining 3 days is now just 1 day, with only Rachmaninov to keep me compamy.
Staring at the screen, I am beginning to see double.

And last year someone threw a spanner in the works too.

What was it that Douglas Adams said about deadlines? "I love deadlines. I love the whooshing noise they make as they go by." I also love meetings. Especially the long, pointless ones that suck down productive time.
I understand your feeling of fragmentation from this one.

I remember similar situations before retirement saved me from all that. Now I can enjoy Rach whenever I please! Great taste in music, Bill!

I understand this. This is my life. Sucks sometimes. Good luck with the project. Hope you can get some work done in the airport.

I was once told by a seasoned solicitor that: " Deadlines are meant to be missed." :) Good luck and an image appropriate to your circumstance. V

It might be arduous but you work life isn't boring. Take some pictures when you are in London and sometimes airports can be a good site for pix.
