Six weeks ago I put a request in for a simple extraction script. It still doesnt work.
I sent the schema I wanted, the format I wanted it, where I wanted, when I wanted it with additional rules.
Fours weeks later I get
THe format they wanted to send it in.
Sent to the wrong DB
Sent at the wrong time
Sent with the wrong where clause
and no rules.
After getting this sorted, the new year kicks in and the whole thing stops working.
The US DBA (obviously Jnr) says theres nothing wrong. A week later I escalate it and have a conference call. He says theres nothing wrong. I make him send the script. He says theres nothing wrong with it.
Less than 30 seconds after getting it, I tell him to test the first line. It's wrong.
No f-cking apology. He spends the next 20 minutes looking at it and then goes 'Oh its got the wrong date'
No apology. No 'oh I ****ed up'. ******.
I should send him a thank you card though. Held me up for a few weeks and therefore another two weeks added on to the contract. Nice.
