I got in early on my final Friday at Borland. I'd convinced myself a 5 a.m. start time would create a dramatic last-ditch effort on my committed work. By the time my going-away lunch arrived, I'd successfully booted my computer, stared at the screen for an hour, and packed my boxes.
As 5 p.m. rolled around, I shut down my computer and dragged my feet into my boss's office. "Yeah, so, I didn't finish much of the import/export work."
His comment: "Yeah, no one thought you could do it."
