I am going to adjust my schedule. I come in at 9 am but I actually get here at 9:20, 9:30. That’s not good. I spend a lot of time in traffic. I don’t want to do that. Talking to Chris, he said he is flexible as long as I leave from 6 to 7. That’s actually better, because I will actually spend less time in the office.
I reread the Command pattern today. The pattern is simple, encapsulate a request into a Command and execute it.
Thinking about my son, I get a smile on my face. He is so cute. He is such a good boy. I don’t know what we would do without him. Oh my got, just a thought of that scares me.
My longer-term goal is to become a manager. I am giving myself time till the end of 2008 (preferable in the middle). I got asked whehter I have the skills. I think that I have what it takes. I would love to coach. I would love to make the guys around me better.
Or maybe I should try to become an architect or senior designer? Maybe, but I would get to do that as a manager.
One of my biggest issues in getting there, I think, are my communication skills. I need to be more open. I need to be bold and not afraid to talk. I just need to be more outspoken.
