frenzy-ing Tuesday March 1

i had an 'otto' moment yesterday. started to frenzy a little bit about work. my job isn't particularly stressful; there aren't thousands of dollars on the line or anything like that, but there are potentially over a thousand people whose experience here relies on what i do.

and what the students who program the building do.

it's very important that i keep that line solid, because it's very easy to become a programming advisor for these groups. they don't know what lights look good, or what show orders work well, and so on. and i do advise them if it comes up, but i can't very well tell them what to do. i am a vehicle for their performance, and that is all.

that reduces the stress greatly, because if the program goes poorly, it's not my problem. but it still reflects negatively on the building that i am very proud of. so you see the bind -- i am disconnected from the programming in a way, but still must always keep it in mind if i am to propogate a positive image of my building.

and yes, i think the reason monika selected me for this job is because it was her building, and she saw me taking ownership of it. do not mess with our building.
