Dear Diary,

Today is Friday, July 12, 2024. It rained today.

I needed to share a product usage experience today, but the sharing document that should have been completed yesterday was not finished yet. As soon as I arrived at my workstation, I started working on the document. I finally finished it just before the deadline at around ten o'clock.

While writing the documentation, I discovered some front-end issues with our product. These issues affected the presentation I would share, so I had to rush to fix them. One issue involved a front-end dropdown selection box that needed to support remote search. Since I was not familiar with the parameters of this component, I wasted more than half an hour.

Before eating, I hadn't finished fixing the issues, so I went to eat with my colleagues first.

Today I had shrimp dumplings; they were great. Because there were still unresolved issues and it was raining, we did not take a walk and went straight back to the office area. Finally, before the lunch break, I fixed the front-end issue affecting the presentation.

Sleeping...

In the afternoon, the sharing session started at 2 p.m. It was an online meeting, and about 80 people participated. I shared the background of creating this product and provided a quick start guide. Then, I discussed best practices and answered frequently asked questions. Finally, I shared the current shortcomings of the product and future plans. The entire session took exactly an hour.

After the meeting, another bunch of messages was waiting for me. I replied to various messages, and then there was an issue handed over to colleagues for troubleshooting that they couldn't solve. I had to step in to help with the troubleshooting and eventually found that the account configured by a former colleague lacked the necessary permissions.

The busy week is finally over. Time to go home after work.

Goodnight, Diary. Until tomorrow.

Best, Jasper Van
