A long lost friend

After a shocking company meeting today telling me how my bonus is going to change next year I got a little worried. We all have target's to meet even though I sell nothing. However, my target is affected by how well the sales team perform and we all rely on each other in a sense. I've currently been cracking on creating two websites for my boss. Well, three, but one's a variation of the other.

It's taken me a while to do them all and get them completed. Two of them are fully finished and the other which has already been launched is still being tested. The boss decided he wanted to pull my entire development because of multiple things he didn't like and a few glitches which all really was approved before the launch. That really riled me up and I was so stressed that day. Eventually after he finished deciding, he got the entire development team on the website and those glitches and unfinished parts were almost finished in one day. When I saw those tasks being crossed off the list, I felt a huge burden taken off my shoulders. It gets boring developing the same thing day-in-day-out. At times a developer needs a break. I have to plough on forward creating the next project set aside which has a deadline of Thursday. This time, if I need extra help, I'll get it.

So.. back to the point. I was on my break and called Darren, a good friend and previous boyfriend (you could say so) from my University life. Now, we were always good friends until one point we fell out over something really stupid. But that's in the past. I just did my normal checks to see if he was alright and to get upto-date with his life. He's kind of sweet in a way that he always thinks I ring him last or go to Derby to see others and not just him. Sure, I travel to Derby often, I have alot of friends that clash with each other so I keep them apart. Sometimes I wish he would just take my word for it. I'm not a 'mushy' person so I come across slightly aggressive and forward. Everyone knows it but if I was one of those 'mushy' people I sure would be in the good books of everyone which wouldn't help myself at all. Hopefully he'll get back to me so I can go see him. I haven't seen him in along time, it's waaay overdue.

He's a guy with alot of emotions though and that's why I like him. He's not trying to be something he's not. He's not hooked on having boyfriends 24/7 and likes to have fun. With Darren, I have no downers; only uppers.
