Intro
This week was a blend of mentoring, migrations, and midnight debugging sessions. I kicked off a new customer mentoring engagement, tackled a Perforce-to-GitHub migration head-on (with all the script-induced headaches that entails), and even found time to connect with the Microsoft partner community. Spoiler: coffee consumption hit record highs. ☕💥
Monday
I started the week by drafting a concept document for a customer's Perforce to GitHub Enterprise migration. It’s still a work-in-progress, but it felt good to lay the foundation. It’s one of those tasks where you realize halfway through that explaining the “why” is often harder than the “how.”
Mood of the day: ✍️ Focused but cautiously optimistic
Tuesday
The day kicked off with my first official mentoring call with a customer interested in GitHub Enterprise. I had some doubts about my impact during the call, but the client reassured me it was very helpful. Impostor syndrome: 0, positive feedback: 1 😊
In the afternoon, I attended an IAMCP (International Association of Microsoft Channel Partners) meetup in Luzern. Great people, great energy, and a few promising new connections.
Mood of the day: 🤝 Inspired (and mildly surprised in a good way)
Thursday
Big day! I delivered my first GitHub Advanced Security training. Although it was my first time handling this topic, I felt quite comfortable—turns out, deep dives into documentation and past pain pay off.
Later, I continued working on the migration app. We switched from scripting to a C# console app for better control. I ended up debugging into the night—trying to make external PowerShell scripts play nice with parallel tasks. 🧵😩
Mood of the day: 🧠 Mentally drained but weirdly proud
Friday
Back in the trenches with the migration app. The good news? I finally resolved about 80% of the nasty bugs that were haunting the console integration. It's slowly turning from a Frankenstein monster into a usable tool.
Mood of the day: 🛠️ Progress feels good (but still a bit tired)
