Cut & Paste

I have writer's block. Not to say i'm hell of a writer to begin with but any who........ i have writer's block. That's the problem when the only form of writing one ever does is documentation for User Requirement Specifications, Technical Specifications, Technical Proposals and User Manuals. It's a shitty job, but some poor sod has to do it. That poor sod happens to be me.

It's a whole different ball park when it's formal documentation. When 60% of the work is doing screen shots and using that all too familiar cut & paste function, that leaves just about 40% of telling what those screen shots actually do.

I love cut & paste. Did i even mentioned i love cut & paste?

Bill Gate's gift to mankind.... Cut & paste

My official last working day is 23rd May 2008. I'm still doing cut & paste. Again, MY official last working day is 23rd May 2008. I'm still troubleshooting YOU-KNICKS servers over VPN from home at wee hours in the morning. 23RD MAY 2008! I'm still housekeeping, fine tuning and troubleshooting Larry Ellison's irish pot of gold database ALSO via VPN.
In a typical organization, i would have already started handing off my shit load of work i have to Mr. Sorry Sod, next-in-line protégé. But in THIS current organization, i'd probably be doing proposals till my last day, and they'd probably expect a 1/2 hour hand over session before i leave. Hmmm.. correction. probably 15 mins hand over cos the 1st 15 mins will be used to decide WHO actually will be taking over...

IGNORANCE IS BLISS.

Ignorance is Bliss... such an appropriate tag line for a company. After all, no else seems to give a shit about what's going to happen in the future. What more, since i'm leaving.... shouldn't i do the same? Tsk Tsk... i'm ashamed of having to explain this to my clients.

The only single greatest regret i have throughout my 2 years here is representing such a weak-ass product / solution.

Think i'll get back to doing my documentation for this weak-ass product..
