Most Brutal Thanksgiving Tasks

This is for monkeys looking to vent between turns or stir memories of past trauma while waiting for a connecting flight.

We've all been there or seen a cube-mate there... mindless work over the holidays that could wait, but doesn't...

Post your worst.

I'll kick it off:
Turning a PE management compensation comps deck Tues - Fri Thanksgiving week. It was "urgent" - didn't get looked at until the following Wednesday... needless to say, I was furious.

 

"Maybe it makes sense to add a few profiles of financial buyers. Nothing fancy, so don't spend the entire thanksgiving weekend on this. Make sense? thx"

There's a closer meaning to my user name. Try reading it quickly. Perhaps you will then understand ;P
