It has been hard, that is true. But I'm slightly relieved I've done all I can do in this process. I have to rely on other people to get me through now and that feeling kills me. I feel like I have strong referees who I work closely with and can vouch for how well I can do my job. I guess that's got to count for something, right?

19 May is the last possible day I find out anything, I figure the closer I get to that day the better chance I have of being successful at this process.

it's not that surprising really, considering the Wii is 11 years old this year (it was discontinued in 2011 here) and the Wii U is 5 years old this year and only discontinued in January - although there are not even a handful of places that still has consoles available. Yikes! You'd think that alone would make me reconsider my decision but nope …

true, but in saying that I don't have an immediate team leader again at the moment. I feel like our team has lacked direction and stability since at least September last year. But we've managed to get through it fairly unscathed.

No question is ever silly! You can do that for PS4 and Xbox One consoles but not Wii U it seems. It's ok though, I've read enough reviews to know I'm instantly going to like it so that's not an issue.

No offence to other people on the train, but I'd rather have a comfy ride to work than be squashed into the glass wall. I know I could lose a few kilos but I'm not unhealthy by any means. I'd rather stand knowing I'd be sitting for most of the day anyway.

@kdfrawg I think if I didn't like what I do, I wouldn't have lasted that long.

@kdfrawg It's purely just me thinking of the situation from a worst case scenario point of view. It's got to that point now where I'm just like 'I'm done!'. Put it this way, if the result doesn't go my way, I'm not staying. If they expect me to stick around to train anybody I'll be like 'er… nope!'

@kdfrawg Oh for sure! The uncertainty kills me.

@kdfrawg Exactly this. I saw a blog today from the CFO that mentions basically all the good work all the other teams are doing in the lead up to the release of the budget in June and end of financial year and all that. Not once does it mention that our team of two have got through some tough times with minimal direction. I'd say that's a mean feat in itself. I know we're the smallest team in the branch but we always seem to fly under the radar in his eyes.

@kdfrawg Agreed! :)
