a bit of a beating

Work seems to be beating me up lately. I finally thought I had a handle on things and then bam its like day one all over again. Although, really its not, it just seems like it sometimes... I've learned a ton so far its just that there is just a lot more to learn. If someone had given me my current project during my first week I would have been 150% lost whereas now its only about 75% and another few months from now I'd probably be down to about 40%. So I'm making progress, just not as quickly as some of the others. I know I've only been working for 4 months but its hard to see how people can get sick of their jobs. Everything is so dynamic and every day is different. Don't get me wrong, there are still times when I feel like tossing my two 24 in. monitors (I am very spoiled) out the window because I'm frustrated. But those times pass quickly and can mostly be blamed on C++ letting me shoot myself in the foot. My feet have lots of holes in them - its a good thing I'm still kind of young (depending on who you ask) so they heal pretty quickly.
