Ship date.
Being a programmer, I don't have a whole lot to do on kickoff, or even for a few days. We talk about what our robot will do, etc, but I don't really care.
Ship date and the week leading up to it are a continual madhouse of yelling at who ever is using the robot to get it over to the computers, compiling while waiting, downloading code, waiting for whoever decided they were going to work on the bot while the code was transferring, moving it to the practice field, running it, finding out the autonomous mode setting switches were wrong, switching them, waiting for whoever decided they were going to work on the bot, testing it again, running back to the computers to fix the code, and repeat.
But it doesn't stress me.
I even liked the Bieber commercial. - Andy Baker [more]
