It was still a bad weekend. Because I took my pc back home again, and I cannot remember the number of times. As a rule, I don’t work on Friday nights and Saturdays because I need to relax, spend time with my family, or hang out at the store to buy some perfume, some of which is vibrant fragrance.

I am curious what the boss thinks, not only requires subordinates not to delay the implementation, but also does not give clear work objectives.
