Plus as we all know there are plenty of people who call themselves PM's but haven't the first clue how to actually manage a project that presents any real challenge.

Anyone who's spent the cash to get a Prince2 Practitioner cert can call themselves a PM, but most of them feel managing a Gantt chart is the be all and end all of the job.

The fact is many "PM's" couldn't manage a piss up in a brewery.

you are without doubt a wise man. I will print this out and hang it up in the office, in fact , sod it, I will go further,
I will get it tattooed onto my knob

Virtually on it now. Been searching around for three weeks now (due to client delay of implementation). Busy now for a few days to put in the production implementation..but next week....desperately seeking work.

Being freelance and without car make it even that much harder. though do have a line on a website job...sounds like a one day job though.

Well...I needed a holiday anyway. How's Greece this time of year?

Hot and sunny. Bit full of Brit tourists swilling lager and chips in the resorts though.

I hesitate to ask this, but do you display your knob to aspiring PM's who believe that their Gantt chart is their project bible?

worse, much worse.

I reel my knob out to wet behind the ears, young sallawags, and let them read it. all ten volumes.
It saves me having to say

Do you issue them with an individual magnifying glass or just slap the old chap under a microscope?



Sorry, best I can manage at this time of day.
