Rayman Pirate-Community

Bumping, mainly bc of the significant change in my life and my schedule has changed again.

5-7: Get up in the morning, shower, get ready for training.
7-7:15: Have breakfast.
7:30-7:45: Drive to training
8-12:30, and 13:30-17:00: Training (with lunch break for missing hour)
17:00-23:00: Free time
23:00-1:00: Go to sleep!

I guess my morning routine is: feel tired, go back to sleep. Get up hours later, still feel tired, be tired all day.

If there´s a topic similar to this, please delete this then.

Here you comment the things you normally do all the days.

I start

1.- I wake up

2.- I hate cleaning my teeth because im very sleepy

3.- UGH making breakfast for my dads so they can be relaxed

4.- Online zoom classes, really boring, no recess EVERY SINGLE DAMN DAY

5.- cleaning my room

6.- be in my living room with my mom 3 second and then i leave because SHE WATCHES EVERY SINGLE -insert f word- DAY THE SAME STUPID GOSSIP TV SHOW WHEN REPORTERS TALK WITH FAMOUSE LOCAL STARS AND STALK THEM AND THEN EMOTIVE MOMENTS AND THEN A -insert f word- GUINEA PIG THAT GOD DAMN..... DANCES??!?!? literaly peruvian shows are GARBAGE (i dont know how my mom can watch that EVERY DAY, my dad also hates it and do other things

7.- all day investigating about rayman, playing rayman, making a rayman fangame, drinking in my fanmade rayman cup

8.- NIGHT, i go to the local public park

9.- i sleep because i have no friends

Well, we have this topic: What's your morning routine?

It's just for the morning, but I think it was also used in some occasions to mention daily rutines in general.

I think i was the one who started that trend. Maybe after things are done with RD we can just merge the 2 and call it "daily routine' instead.

Motion carried. This thread is now the Daily Routine thread!

It's funny how not much has changed in like 4 years.

Not sure if I've mentioned it before, but my routine involves being woken by my alarm at 5:40, then depending on how groggy I am, setting off for work any time between 6:00 and 6:30, then arriving there sometime between 7:30 and 8:00… So it's nice to have a week off right now

I don’t envy you on that routine, Plum. Thank god for that week off! What kind of work do you do?

I’m in a bit of a limbo since I can’t get a job until my citizenship is approved. I’m considering opening commissions and am currently working on Rayman paintings to sell for some money on the side, though.

Oh man, how long is that citizenship going to take, do you think?

I'm an engineer in the semiconductor industry. In theory, a lot of my work could be done from home, as indeed it was for most of 2020 and 2021, but I find it frustrating to be away from where the action is (the lab) and it's too easy to form a warped perception of how things really are when you're not meeting people face-to-face and having casual conversations. I consider that a lot of the "work" done in 2020-21 was more "activity" than "productivity" because nearly everyone had a different mental picture of what was really happening, and we were all kinda working at crossed purposes…

I’m at the very end of it! Currently on a marriage visa so once we’re married, I’ll be able to stay here for good and get a job. looking to the end of October and I’ll probably have something!

With something like engineering, I agree it’s important to be on-site. The issue is that Covid gave workers and employers the idea that everything can be done at home, but honestly the most effective way to make solutions is being with a group of others and seeing things for yourself! I commend you for waking up everyday for it.

This is one of the concerns I'll have when I get into a job involving coding, even though remote work is handy. I'll definitely have to compensate for it by spending time with others still.

I guess the trend for new jobs now is back towards remote working being only a couple of days a week at most, right?

Yeah, that’s what it’s like for my sister who works in baking disputes. She goes into the office certain days a week, but otherwise she works from home.

I don't understand the decision of making people work in person when it can be done remotely. I think it's one of the few good things (probably the only one) we saw on the pandemic.

I usually get up at 7:00 (or a little earlier, around 6:50), leave my house around 7:30 and get to work at 8:00. From this point on, the departure time is undetermined. Right now I am working on my doctoral thesis, so depending on the day I may finish earlier or later. For example, if I am synthesizing a compound, I am quite likely to finish between 19:00 and 20:00. If I am focusing on catalytic studies, it is likely that by about 17:30 or 18:00 I will have finished everything I wanted to do. There are times when you have to wait, for example, for a couple of hours to complete the next step. In that two-hour span, I can dedicate myself to reading papers (I usually do this at home, I concentrate more) or just make time (like today, I've been posting around noon). I can't do my job remotely, but I don't consider it a bad thing... I've always liked being in a lab.

Well, now it makes sense that you know a lot of things about semiconductors, or that you're kinda "familiar" with perovskites

My daily routine for this summer holiday

Wake up
Go on raymanpc
Watch YouTube
Go to bed
Repeat

I always used to be nervous in a lab, but once I spent a couple of years in industry with fairly automated tests, and working on new problems, I had actually started to enjoy popping in there from time to time. So being cut off from the lab was frustrating, and I make a point of spending time in there now even if I could "technically" delegate some stuff to interns.

Oh yeah, that remark about gallium and boron is borne out of unpleasant experience with misfit in heavily-boron-doped silicon substrates! (Yes we actually managed to get a supplier to make material with misfit once…) I remember taking stock of the situation and thinking like "is boron really the best option to p-dope silicon with this huge size mismatch??"
