6/13/2007 work as an ID 很多朋友问我实习时做什么，我说是写文档的。大家都露出或将信将疑，或匪夷所思，或少少鄙视的表情。
恩，为了帮助大家更好地理解，帖出来两篇同事写的文章，如果愿意练习一下阅读的，可以稍稍看一下。
A day in the life of a writer in Raleigh
8:15 am Arrive at office and sprint up the stairs in hopes of getting some exercise
8:30 am Boot machine, start Notes and Sametime. Go get coffee so you can ignore how long it takes to get software running.
9:30 am Attend full release status meeting. Celebrate (secretly) when the date for full release product is pushed back two weeks because there is too much work. Look serious on the outside so everyone knows you don't like schedule changes.
9:35 am Die a little inside when you hear all the functionality that has been added since there are now two more weeks in the schedule.
9:50 am Try to sneak in some email. Realize your Thinkpad is out of battery.
10:00 am This time you really mean to start responding to email, but get pinged by a developer who wants to know when the documentation for the new functionality is going to be started.
10:21 am Get pinged by a tester who wants to know when the documentation for the new functionality is going to be complete.
10:25 am Sametime locks your machine. Reboot. (At least it got rid of the pingers.)
11:00 am Restart Notes. Restart Sametime. Restart your day.
12:00 pm Realize you have an urgent email pulling the release date of the project back in one week.
12:55 pm Cafeteria closes at 1. Sprint now or suffer the impending embarrassment of a growling stomach.
1:05 pm Didn't make it to the Caf. Collect coins from sympathetic colleagues and go to the vending machine.
1:15 pm Meet with developer to discuss what exactly needs to be documented. Remember power cord but forget snacks. Try coughing to cover up stomach noises.
2:00 pm Go to cube. Turn on iPod to block out world. Write.
2:05 pm Get pinged by translation team because there are transform errors in your DITA files.
2:06 pm Complain about DITA being so picky but secretly be thankful something is there to catch errors while starting up CMVC, checking out files, waiting for Epic editor, making 2-second fix, closing Epic, checking file back in.
3:00 pm Back to writing new technical content.
4:00 pm Sametime locks your machine. Reboot. Wonder if this is a sign to go home. Wonder if your new content was saved.
4:30 pm Attend ID meeting where you learn the product release date has been pulled back in and no new features are being shipped. Undo your changes while paying attention in meeting, answering Sametimes. and trying to check email.
4:45 pm Panic when you hear your name mentioned in the meeting.
5:00 pm Decide to take Thinkpad home so you can finish working after dinner.
A day in the life of a writer in Westford
8:00 am Sip coffee and read mail.
8:12 am Restart Notes because the Notes 8 beta you installed yesterday crashed when you tried to send a reply
8:40 am Prepare for Directory team dev meeting
8:44 am Attempt to open Crusader to print a directory chapter. Restart Notes.
9:00 am Directory dev team meeting. Get broken conference room chair. Find out that regression testing for M4 ends on March 9.
10:00 am Dash to Hannover ID meeting. Get broken conference room chair. Find out that management is sticking to original M4 deadline.
11:00 am Chase down Domino product manager to review revised entry for Domino Blog
11:15 am Waylaid in the ladies room by a QE engineer, who wants to know if she should SPR a grammatical error. Resist urge to scream. Find out from her that regression testing for M4 ends on Feb. 28.
11:30 am Stop by a developer's office to find out about the status of his feature. He tells you he has no clue when M4 ends.
Noon Microwave a Lean Cuisine and read mail. Drip lasagna on keyboard.
12:15 pm Get ST'd by fellow admin writer with a question. She has no info about M4. Share latest cool emoticons. Restart Sametime
12:18 pm Write
1:00 pm Download and install new daily Domino and Notes build. Discover that the Notes beta UI is in Swedish
2:00 pm Attend Domino Server PL team meeting. M4 SPRs are discussed, but not deadlines
3:30 pm Dash to other end of building to meet with Podcast workgroup. Get broken conference room chair. Find out there may be an M5.
4:00 pm Back in office. Try to read mail while ISSI updates run. Curse when everything freezes up. Consider going to ladies room but want to avoid QE engineer.
4:05 pm Restart Notes.
4:15 pm WRITE
5:00 pm Check Domino Blog for user comments. Discover that product manager posted your draft entry, without proofing. See now that “Dominino” is leading the “sever” world in “newtwork” services.
5:15 pm Decide to try ladies room. No QE engineer. Also, no soap and no paper towels. 6/5/2007 痴呆上班族 最近陷入莫名低迷的状态，难以形容，无法描述。
主要症状是一个人的时候会发呆，犯傻，面无表情，记忆力严重衰退。
不工作的时候常常大脑放空，处于完全无意识的状态。
上一周装的软件，这一周不仅忘记用户名密码，而且连安装配置过程都忘得一干二净。
看着前两天写的东西，要从头到尾再看一遍，才明白自己到底什么意思。
组长写周报，问我上周做了什么，我明明一周都忙得人仰马翻，每天都充满成就感，但到了这时候，居然什么都想不出来。
最恐怖的是，看到报纸上黄秋生的照片，我足足想了五分钟才想出来他的名字……
工作有点忙，有点累。
我以为只是“有点”，没想到前段时间大家见我，都是一副“你怎么看起来惨成这个样子”的表情。
下班时遇到师弟，师弟简直快要见到鬼的样子。
在地铁里，偶尔额头抵着玻璃，一抬头，看到一个眉头紧锁，目光空洞，头发纠结的上班族。
原来我一个人的时候是这种死样子啊……
一天的欢乐时光有两个：一个是中午去华为食堂吃红薯，然后边吃雪糕边遛弯的时候；还有晚上八点多下班，去7-11买饮料，悠悠然走过四环，然后咕咚咕咚喝光。
唉，我不想，我不想，不想长大。
5/17/2007 RP持续走低....... 组长出门已经四天了，我每天兢兢业业，勤勤恳恳，日出而作，日落而息。
早晨7：40准点起床，8：00到达福乐祥家。买一个灌饼，在路口为了坐地铁还是坐公交踌躇一下。每天早晨这都是艰难的选择。坐地铁的话，在地铁上的时间7分钟，走路的时间45分钟；坐公交的话，开车35分钟，等车20分钟。经过这些天的实践总结，我发现：情绪低落时宜坐地铁，心情舒畅时宜乘公交。如果在不爽时还去挤公交，那肯定会加倍郁闷，并放出“要是再坐982我就是猪！”这样的话。
到了办公室，倒杯水，开始干活。
这里根本没有传说中的饮料零食，这让我从来的那一天就很失望。尤其是每天从Xigma后门路过，总看到大叔们把标着“微软专用”的汽水、水果箱搬进搬出。不过还好，没有路过google……
虽然这里以资产阶级大锅饭著称，但毕竟是资产阶级，还是应该尽量自觉地创造剩余价值。在所里，一百多页的cisco文档，我可以从年前看到年后。现在，组长上午丢给我一个两三百页的，下午就问我有什么想法。
中午是happy hour。华为食堂的红薯是我一整天的力量来源。真想像小新（蜡笔小新）一样，在手腕上画个永远指着三点钟的表。每次抬手看时间时，都可以说：“吃点心的时间到了！”
吃个饭，遛个弯，然后开始漫长的下午。
当然，这篇博的重点不在我是多么辛勤工作的，而在于虽然我如此辛勤的工作，但RP还是持续走低！
5.1前夕，学生证诡异地不见了，遍寻不着。
5.7，从福建回来的火车上打喷嚏打到涕泪交加，感冒。
5.8，坐公交上班，从厦门千里迢迢带回来完好无损的酥皮馅饼，在982上被挤烂。
被挤车不长眼睛的IT民工打中鼻梁，疼得五官纠结。
5.9，悲愤交加，感冒一发不可收拾，请病假一天。
5.10 头晕乎乎，坐地铁，钱包被偷。那家伙推了我的包一把，我还以为书包太大挡到了他，还说了“不好意思”。
5.15 宿舍楼下通知有我的邮件，找翻天都没找到。这年头，什么都会丢。
5.17 中午吃饭出来，从树上突然掉下一根大树枝，正砸在额头上。
被砸的时候，我抬头看了看天，Are you kidding me?
在福建我不是禅宗、密宗、如来、观音、妈祖、释迦摩尼全都拜过了么？
难道最近应该拜基督？
好吧，这次我要看一看，一个人到底能倒霉到什么地步。
