Update:

Got made to attend a 'high risk walkthrough' as a result of the mad witch ******* up my change.

So, I go to the meeting room, the actual objector is not present. I talk through the change, the back out points, the go/no go points etc and a head of a techie infrastructure team says "Why are you wasting our time with this, this is not high risk ?".

Change approved, T.Mangler still in a job.

Now, time to super-glue the old witch to her chair.

Fuckin' permmies..........

These people land up making twats of themselves by getting others to run around after them. They get theirs in the end.

I always try to justify having to do this tulip by the invoice amounts

Someone asked me yesterday how long my contract was for. I said it was about another twenty grand.

Obviously those are the issues to consider.

Ever tried to get HR to sack someone?

I built a team of 14 for my last datacenter transformation project. I had bounced so many internal CV's (read bobs on K.T visa's) that the internal resourcing manager went all out and found me some home grown local engineers (I had already hired 8 contractors and client co were getting annoyed about budgets) So in the end I had to accept this pair of shaven apes from the witel practice.

They ****ed up absolutely every job that I could find for them. Some of them as simple as go and clone that machine into a VM and stick it on the test bed...

They couldn't even make tea/go to Starbucks when the grown ups were working. Best of all they wouldn't work weekends because they wanted to see their family and insisted that they booked 3 weeks off work over the migration period.

They were causing some serious issues, and couldn't be trusted anywhere on their own. In the end I had to send one of the contractors to follow them around and mop up whatever they touched. They even made it onto the client facing risk log as being one step above retarded and most likely to destroy anything they touched (I managed to sneak that risk in 5 minutes before the weekly CAB and our programme manager missed the change and put it up on the projector before anyone else could stop him...)

Even faced with a list of ****ups as long as your arm and the client baying for them to be removed after one of them practiced "cluster up", "cluster down" "cluster failover" on the main SQL cluster during a UAT test...

Still working for the company and one of them is about to get promoted to a senior lead...

Just need a emoticon for raining cash ! In the end nursemaiding those clowns paid for one the chaps to get new sports car. (that was just in the overtime it cost the client for him to undo every thing they did)
