Last Day - New Chapter

· January 30, 2009

I have come to a fork in the road of my life (that almost sounds like a poem :)).

Today is my last day on this assignment, where I’ve learned a lot. This time, I’ve delved into SOA, WCF, TFS, AOP, and build scripts, along with SCRUM.

The SCRUM part of this experience was almost a religious one. I feel like a different and better consultant after learning SCRUM, and I don’t think I’ll ever go back.

The future holds six months with Albert and Elin. I will be “daddy-free” (a direct translation of “pappaledig” for all you Swedish readers). This is a wonderful benefit in Sweden where you actually receive money from the government to stay home with your kids. Amazing!

Elin is working nights right now, which means she has a lot of free time during the day. This allows us to spend a lot of time together, something I am really looking forward to.

So that’s my agenda for the next six months: daddy-free! See you!

P.S.
I’ve just bought Clean Code and Patterns of Enterprise Architecture - so I’ll be reading those. I also plan to start a little hobby project to explore DDD, TDD, and ASP.NET MVC. I’ll update you on that if I follow through.
