You know, I seriously should not get up at least once a week, and usually on Monday, thinking, "You know, if I was a good employee, because someone is on vacation/someone's going to training/there'll be a shitload of work when I get there because someone else was a lazy jackass, I'd go to work early today." And then follow it up by guilt-tripping myself into getting there bright and early and helping out.

'Cause, seriously, how fucking stupid is that? My work ethic and the part of my brain that loathes my job with a fiery passion need to powwow, I swear.

EDIT: I may actually have two whole chapters of the TroNoWriMo story finished today, and I keep debating whether I should let someone read 'em or whether I should just wait until I get the entire bloody story finished. Urgh.

No one is that good an employee. Be happy with being grumpy and pissed at your co-workers on Monday like the rest of us.

Out of curiosity, how does one pronounce TroNoWriMo? Empahtically, I mean. Do you stress the second syllable so it rhymes with Geronimo? or the third, so it's more like gonorrhea? Just curious....

My two cents: don't have somebody read them yet. Just wait until the end of the month and make the decision then. I can be 40,000 words into a project and within a couple of chapters of the end, and if someone reads it and says the wrong thing--like "it's great! keep going!"--poof. Motivation gone.
Just focus on the writing now. Let the other stuff come later.

That's my plan as of yet. I really, really, really want someone else to read it, because I'm starting to adore it to itty bitty pieces, but if I show someone right now, I know that's exactly what's going to happen.
