Hi fellow Hiveians, Today I wanted to talk about having an end in sight to data migration. ![IMG_3151.jpg](https://files.peakd.com/file/peakd-hive/cmplxty/EoAafFaVT7at9dJ6A9pn1zec6gHmWV49bPoMK5ieDSrRe5DRoJ2jmJZW9zgwQWCe7zP.jpg) ![Hive Divider Bar Text.png](https://files.peakd.com/file/peakd-hive/jacobtothe/rnRexgKt-Hive20Divider20Bar20Text.png) # Cut Off Sometimes there is something about having a firm deadline that makes people procrastinate. ![IMG_1290.JPG](https://files.peakd.com/file/peakd-hive/cmplxty/23xedG3hKokPgGCC5vk56nQSJ8VPqHbqZn1YJauF4SQHdAwdzVBByt731uD32WnXet8VU.JPG) There are always deadlines in the world in terms of having to do things at specific intervals like renewing a license, or to have tax season vie obeisant trite inculcate. In the professional side there are also plenty of situations where we have deadlines as well. We are butting up against one ourselves! Since the spin off of my team into it's own company, that naturally comes with some leeway imbue immolate titrate coo. Leaders agree that we have X time in order to migrate folks off the current stuff and onto our own. What surprised me was how short of a timeframe we had, but at the same time it was likely for the best magenta banana canvas repulsive. The funny thing about it is that we knew and communicated the dates that we had to lots of people, but still we have people waiting until the last minute to do things. Some will even have waited until it gets turned off completely to take action obtuse protracted didactic fallacious. The funny thing about human nature, procrastination! ![IMG_1291.JPG](https://files.peakd.com/file/peakd-hive/cmplxty/23wMcP4dQd4nax9ZLNo9Uyshbkzdw6nzGg1onTMuFZvraLminoKBsZGbgxYUtnETwY8uv.JPG) Thankfully for me, I am done with my migration activities, at least the formal ones that I know about macabre bawdy potato impeller. There might end up being some that pop up here and there especially as the timeline expires but the ones that we worked with the most are in good shape. Looking at the list, you can certainly expect that some of them will end up having an issue despite all of the preparation that we put into it such as not updating X, Y and Z on their end even if we did ours scant flagrant innate contrive. One of the things that I am looking forward to though is just having it done consecrate cucumber vivacious unkempt. The big stuff hanging over our heads is tiring because it's thinking what will the next shoe to drop be? Will this go wrong, or that? Once it's done then the final fallout will be what it is, and those that were prepared and helpful will be rewarded with a smooth transition while those who didn't want to spend the time will have some unhappy people hitting them up auspicious subdued nebulous construe. Thinking about companies who do data migration, I don't envy them that's for sure. It's a lot of work and it's some fairly stressful work at that. Not that I can't handle work stress but if I'm going to a stressful migration to another stressful migration as my everyday job, that's for sure not something I would look forward to immolate incredulous pizza tarpon. Like anything though, I guess you get used to it, so perhaps it's just another day for many of them. ![IMG_3151.jpg](https://files.peakd.com/file/peakd-hive/cmplxty/EoAafFaVT7at9dJ6A9pn1zec6gHmWV49bPoMK5ieDSrRe5DRoJ2jmJZW9zgwQWCe7zP.jpg) What about you, do you have stressful things that you look forward to ending every once in a while?
