Work Update

Finally I've visited the boss today, which I could and probably should have done already earlier. Anyway, the result is that in all likelihood my contract gets extended another 3 months, until end of August.

Of course I'm not unhappy as I was too unorganised to even send out applications for jobs yet, so I have three more months to do that while having work and getting paid (at this point I should add that since December I've been receiving the additional amount so I'm entirely satisfied in this respect). Additionally I don't mind seeing another summer here after all the snow and maybe having some opportunity to see more of the country.

Despite that, I'm not euphoric either. When I start a project I like to successfully conclude it. But in this case I know already now - and I told him so - that there is way too much material even for this extension. My estimate is, that I'll definitely get all the Voten during Joseph's time done, maybe even the corresponding Circulanden - although I'm not sure that can be finished. Kaunitz's last four years (the reigns of Leopold and Franz) will definitely be missing and so will be the complete literature research I was much looking forward to. In conclusion: I'll do my work, I'll get as far as I get, and then I leave it as it is. Not a very satisfying thought.

Well, maybe it's also that I'm not in the best mood today. I think I need a break..
