Mastodon and Hadoop are on a boat. ( credits ) Hey you, 11th of November was usually off for me. Since I've started my freelancing activities I don't really follow the usual calendar, working whenever I need/want. I mainly work 3 to 4 days a week. Which is awesome but it has a major drawback I never took a break longer than 1 week. Which, yeah, kinda sucks.
