MF - I failed it last week and the developer says that it is no longer on his priority list as he says he's done the fix. Of course it's a five minute change and of course if the same issue happens again in production the whole datawarehouse load will fail and we're fecked.
Developer - What are my prioritites please?

It's interesting. I'm not really used to working in 'IT' as such. For years I have always sat on the outside of IT departments bought in by the business as 'shadow IT' because these feckers can't deliver. Now I'm sat on the other side of the fence. I engage directly with internal clients and I have control over the projects I deliver, but not always the resource. As soon as it goes to a shared resource model it doesn't work.
There is something intrinsically f**ked with social makeup of people who work in IT that makes them hide behind emails & computers and just don't do the job. And that's why they get outsourced, because they are ******* hopeless at communicating or managing themselves. Hence go with the cheapest.What happens in General, stays in General.You know what they say about assumptions!Comment

It's a lot harder to duck responsibility and play 'asignee tennis' in QC when you've got some mad nicotine deprived jock sitting on your desk
