call your boss and tell him about it...Originally posted by Fatum:I want someone's blood ....
at 4pm today some brass dumped a design change onto my desk, saying that it must be done by tomorrow morning ...
okie, fine, nevermind ... I told the boss that to verify my database code, I'd need some test data generated according to the new parameters .... boss arrowed another chap to do it ...
chap finished it at 5.10 pm and went home ....
and now, at 8.40 pm, after several frustrating hours, I realized that the data weren't real ops data at all, but fabricated dummy ones !!! ....
I am screwed !!! by someone else ~!!!!! ..... -
Typical management way of doing things. Just like the email I received today... I will share it here later on.Originally posted by the Bear:lots of stuff we do.. go give talks and stuff like that..
but this particular one, was talked about by the No.1 and picked up by the boss... so from an off-hand comment by the No.1, it became a "project"
the boss isn't from operations and doesn't know anything about operations.. but she thinks she knows.. and puts this project in black and white and i've been tasked to do it.. i tell her it's an exercise in futility.. she doesn't think so and after a lot of problems, all operational, the decision is to kill it..
thing is this.. i was from operations.. i saw everything coming, and told them.. they who were never from operations always think they know better than us about operations.. and attempted to force it through...
now, after 9 months of fruitless walking into dead ends, they've given up and me, being the "henchman" will have to dispose of the body quietly

But but who is going to usher the usherers to their seats if the ushereres usher the ushers to their seats?

Hellooo, shinta!Originally posted by shinta:why not just call her?
Thing is, not everyone's good for phone conversations. Some people talk a lot sms'ing, but then when you call them, they kinda don't talk so much maybe cause they're busy / distracted / not a 'phone person'. -
