Imagine, two people having a major conflict, would not even look each other in the eyes nor talk. You have to be the middle man to resolve this argument, because if you don't, you're probably getting fired.
Well... Sadly to say, that's my situation now. It has been three weeks since I started working with SignalR and React. They are great people, very capable of making complicated things seem easy. The only problem is, they never get along.
*Bangs head on desk*
I can't remember how many times I've done that today. All of last week, React has been going all RED on me. She wouldn't tell me what was wrong. In fact, she wouldn't even mention anything about SignalR. Every time I try to talk to her, she would just turn around and walk away.
So I went online and asked tonnes of people like Google, StackOverflow and many others. These people, are known to be the best with these sort of situations. My peers has commended on their expertise and how they were the "Well of Knowledge" when it comes to problems with women. They tried really hard to answer my questions, but I was not able to present my situation perfectly and thus not able to get a solid Solution. By the end of Friday though, they were able to provide me with a solution and I leaped in joy as I was really excited to try it out.
I walked into the office today, all smiles. React was in my sight, and I swiftly went up to her to try the solution I read online. She listened to what I had to say patiently.
It worked! Kind of. I got her to express herself: "I refuse to connect."
*Bangs head on desk again*
"I'm never getting this project done!" I screamed to myself.
Just then, she tapped on my shoulder. React has worked on the designs of our project for the past few weeks, she made progress for someone who was pretty new but it was never great. When she pulled out the website that she has been working on the past hour though. I can't help but feel a little joy in my heart. It wasn't stunning, but it was minimally beautiful.
It's really tough when you feel the need to solve every problem you have. But life is never going to go your way all the time. In fact, life never goes your way and it can be stressful as b*ll. But when you're able torejoice in the Littlest Things (like the small tweak from the color green to blue which made a chatbox just slightly more aesthetically pleasing), then life wouldn't seem too bad...
Not too bad at all.
