Diary 90: Work Day

Yesterday I slept at 4:30 am. Today, I woke up at around 11:30 am. I got a call from Ankit that Gil has sent the file back, saying that the errors are still there. So, we had to work on those again. I quickly brushed my teeth, and started working. I had breakfast. Then, after working with the file for a while, we had a conference call with the team. Now, I had a bit of idea about the problem, so I explained them what was happening. Sarvesh as usual was too aggressive at times, but I managed to handle it. Anyways, after the call, we started working parallely. I worked for a while, and then went on to have lunch. After lunch, I again started working. This went on till around 5:30 pm. Till then, sarvesh mailed me the changes and I verified those. After that, I went out to bring the Hindi guide book for my sister. I came back and relaxed for a while. I watched some TV, and later on had some Tea, bread and soup. Then, I moved back to the room and found out that the file is still faulty and that the errors are still present. So, after that I again started working on that. This time I was alone, as both Ankit and Sarvesh are offline. This also gave me a chance to work at night, and then not go to office next day, because of absolutely valid reasons. So, I was excited. But, when I had a look at the problem, I was frustrated again. Then, I and Gil had some calls to identify and rectify some issues. Pretty soon I realized that the problem is much bigger than anticipated. I have been making some random changes to schema throughout, which was actually not allowed. I realized that if I try to incorporate the schema changes then it can kill many parts of the project. So, somehow I managed to bring everything together and put them in a valid schema. Then, suddenly all the issues seem to be trivial. I figured out the reasons for failures and then informed the same to Gil. There were still issues left, but since it was late for me, he let me go. I even messaged Ankit that the issue was solved. Then, after all this, I decided to watch the movie "Wall street 2". Meanwhile, I started writing this post. Next, I will watch the movie till I feel sleepy and then sleep by around 4:30 am.
