Dear Milena,
I wish the world were ending tomorrow. Then I could take the next train, arrive at your doorstep in Vienna, and say: “Come with me, Milena. We are going to love each other without scruples or fear or restraint. Because the world is ending tomorrow.” Perhaps we don’t love unreasonably because we think we have time, or have to reckon with time. But what if we don’t have time? Or what if time, as we know it, is irrelevant? Ah, if only the world were ending tomorrow. We could help each other very much.

At first I thought that one trucker taking more than one shower is what prompted this.
After reading the comments, I know it’s one shower taking more than one trucker…

I can help you on that.
The brand is Trip. It works alright (both for rolling and smoking), but there are better paper (e.g. Raw).
I’d consider it as mostly gimmick. Again, not a bad product overall, tho.

Ah yes, the good ol’ product ownership.
I once built a product from scratch, put my heart and soul into it, watched it grew from pretty much nothing to a full-featured thing. It almost got canceled a few times, but I fought nail and tooth each time (my some colleagues’ help) to keep the development running.
At some point, we hit a whale, a high profile one, that is. Our sales was working them for at least a couple years. My boss even pitched in, lowering the price more than we would’ve just to get the project going.
Yet, I had to pretty much had to make it work by myself, with some part-time help from colleagues who’s doing other projects. The whole development team (which includes this colleagues) were running on skeleton crew.
I asked my boss to recruit some more people, but he refused, due to budget. At some point we ran into an issue that I couldn’t solve. Weeks went by with our product pretty much being unusable. The whale were losing trust in us every moment, but there’s nothing I could do. The first solution my boss could come up with: for me to try and ask around and find a friend who could help me.
Finally my boss caved in and asked some freelance with whom he had worked with previously. We were able to come up with a working solution, but by then, the whale had lost too much trust. One of the top brass there even told us straight up that it’s pointless. This was after we deployed our solution.
As the project was crumbling beneath our feet, I was able to find a new job and got out of that company. Later of, I heard that this project got terminated.
Although I was somewhat bummed, I was also relieved I wasn’t there by the time shit hit the fan. That thing was my baby, but whatever. Now I got paid much more for doing less work that I did.
