Heya, sorry for the interruption! The boss is getting on the rest of the managers about when the internal database is going to be done, so I just wanted to check in on what the ETA's looking like. No pressure :)
17:55 Agent #1308
Sorry for getting back to you so late, lost track of time in the archives again. Website is going good, definitely no issues at all!
Agent #0623 17:57
It's okay! Thank you for the update, I will pass it along. Do you have any idea when the database will be ready for use?
18:07 Agent #1308
I'd say it'll be ready definitely some time in the near-ish maybe far-ish future! Really depends on a lot of factors, y'know.
Agent #0623 18:10
Not exactly the answer I was hoping for, but I suppose there's worse timelines to have. I'll see if the rest of management can come up with a plan to get you some extra time from the boss. You know how they are though.
18:12 Agent #1308
Yeah, I do.
18:27 Agent #1308
To be fully transparent I don't know if I'll be able to finish the website. And I'm not sure how to explain it but it's almost like...
Like there's something that doesn't want me to finish it? Something inside the servers themselves.
I keep coming back and the website's changed itself, broken in some new way I have to spend hours fixing.
Is there someone else with access to the network that I don't know about?
Agent #0623 18:29
There shouldn't be? We've been tracking the new agents pretty thoroughly and no ones come in to get personal files done recently.
I can double check the logs at my agents terminals, but no one else should have direct access to the database like that except for you.
18:31 Agent #1308
Huh. That would be great if you could do that.
It might just be me blacking out in a coding marathon and forgetting what I did lol
Agent #0623 18:33
Lets hope its that lol, the other option will require a lot more permits for us to make and then archive and the get a permit to archive etc etc etc
Of course I'm not asking for this to be the case, but is wooooould be funny if it was one fo Agent Who Know Who's realm reassignment lackey's sent to inconvenience the boss
It's been a little boring around here, it'd be nice to spice things up.
18:34 Agent #1308
So long as "spicing things up" doesn't translate to "losing my job" or "mountains and mountains of permits" (at this point I'm not sure which is worse)
Thanks for checking in, see you in the office tomorrow
Agent #0623 18:35
No problem! See you tomorrow :)
18:39 Agent #1308
Oh, real quick, what's your favorite kind of merlopian donut? I'm stopping through the crossroads before work tomorrow.
Agent #0623 18:43
Oh sources uuuuuhhhhhhh
get me a jelly filled one, preferably one of the tart flavors, but if they don't have any I'll take whatever
