You realize that by telling us the timeline of this project that you’ve admitted that either you didn’t do the things you said you were doing before, or you were going through the motions so we would think those things were in progress and you knew they couldn’t be implemented.

Please stop stopping. We’re walking in an area where heavy machinery moves by very quick. You stopping every ten seconds to talk to someone in front of you or to turn around and talk to me is making me nervous.

I didn’t spend an hour writing that document and then telling everyone in the group chat that it exists and when it would be needed just for people to blatantly ignore it.

Been a while since I posted but today I was genuinely saddened. I work for the government (in the UK) so it’s all “other people’s money”. So it saddened me when it’s wasted so easily.
I think what’s worse is that my manager doesn’t seem to care. No one seems to care. It’s all money down the drain. Green lit by some quangos who will be gone in a few years and leave us with some massive subscription or work to go back.
It’s all just really really disappointing, frustrating and saddening all at the same time😞.

I guess a small chance their gambit could play off but I really doubt it.

So an LED assembly is filed in with lasers? Good to know.
Just to cheer you up, we have the exact same problem here in South Africa.
Govt just borrows money and wastes it without a care in the world.
And, to make things more worse, they target whites specifically with racist laws. Doesn’t matter that the whites are in the minority, they still target all the whites with racist and unjust laws.
No, I will not work any minute more past 16:00. I work from 07:00 to 16:00, so you can sod off with any overtime demands, because I’m not getting paid for any overtime.
If you don’t change your passive aggressive tone in emails I’m going to start ignoring you as much as I can get away with. (This person is, unfortunately, my boss.)

Don’t just stay silent and assume we can read minds.
If we don’t need to buy company phones for specific people, then do let us know when these people start employment.
Also, we are giving you solutions, don’t just say “it’s too expensive” then say nothing more… do contribute by offering or giving other solutions. This is what teamwork is all about.

Your people are in the “wrong staff group” in Tempus (our time and attendance system) because where they are assigned is based on their position in Workday (our HRIS). Guess what? They’re in the correct staff group based on what’s in Workday, which you have access to. You want them in a different staff group? Move them to the right position in Workday.
(I swear, this has been my answer to every single “they’re in the wrong place” inquiry I get these days.)
Oh, another thing about employing new people.
Make sure you can also afford the costs of extra Oiffice365 licences and laptops/cellphones before deciding to employ somebody, then let IT know well in advance of the new employees starting… we cannot smell that, and our crystal ball’s in for repairs.

From July last year:
In a shocking development, the product has been replaced with a new model that removed the enforced compliance and can handle situations where the other thing it interfaces with might be slightly physically different.
How many emojis do we have to express how amazed I am that this company realized it was a bad design and scrapped it?

Oh, boy. You really know how to complicate things, don’t you?
What used to be a straightforward method of noting where an item could be used has been replaced with a multi-step process that involves a chart, comparing it to the unit being worked on, then looking in up to four different places, if not more, to find a match because you don’t have a complete list anywhere. The keys to deciphering this are scattered hither and yon.
No one is going to know how to do this. If we get it wrong, are there going to be legal ramifications?
Listen.
I’ve told you that database connections via VPN WILL. NOT. WORK. over a VSAT link.
Yet you keep on bleating about that shit.
I’m going to gaslight you from now on. There’s nothing more that I can do.
We will have to wait for a fixed line to be installed, with the VSAT link as a backup, and I don’t know when that will happen.
Psshhht.
Are you even trying?
An account lockout happens when you type in your password incorrectly for three consecutive turns.
No ifs, buts, maybes… the computer does not lie.

I’m the guy that engineered the whole data flow you’re talking about, but sure, go ask the guy that has no idea about it. It’s not my time you’re wasting, but I definitely wasted my time explaining it to you that the problem is not the data flow.

I AM NOT A WORDPRESS ADMIN!
If you want to secure our wordpress site, pony up and get a properly qualified Wordpress admin with the experience to match.
Don’t try to save money by going for the cheapest. Cheap means jack shit in this instance.
Suck it up, that’s the ONLY way to sort this shit out.
And excuse my swearing, I’m just highly upset.

If you want to ask me a question, make sure you have my attention first! Not only is it more courteous (and logical) to politely engage with someone before making a request, I am also hearing impaired and probably won’t even know you’re talking if you don’t.
