Work, Work, Work...

Strange, but the recession hits different people in different ways.

I write embedded code for a living, industrial temperature controllers and similiar things. We also provide OEM controllers for a number of industrial equipment manufacturers.

Sales are down. Our customers sales are down. But software development is so busy we've had to hire a contract programmer.

Why? Our customers (particularly the people we do OEM controllers for) are hoping that introducing new products will increase their sales. Especially with a big trade show just around the corner (NPE).

That, combined with a couple of extra foster cats, and I don't have time to relax anymore...
