They need some bloody electrodes shoved up their bums, that's for sure. The contractors are as bad as the permies. Just sitting about yapping about office and project politics, none of them actually give a stuff about how to build and test a system.And what exactly is wrong with an "ad hominem" argument?

Originally posted by Mich the Tester View PostSerious, I'm going to lose it here. Every single suggestion to solve problems is met with 'we can't do that because of circumstances' (well then change the ******* circumstances!). Every document includes 5 pages of distribution history, version history, loads of comments about anything except content, discussions about whether the next version is 0.96 or 0.95b, bla bla bla. I hate this; it's a loser mentality and I can't let myself be infected with it. It's people playing politics because they have no real hard skills or knowledge to bring in, and there's nobody who give a tulip.
Throw the documents around, stand up, bang the desk and shout '******* come on, we can do this, we're professionals! Whos' with me?' Then run for door whooping.What happens in General, stays in General.You know what they say about assumptions!Comment

I miss the leccie industry. Last project I worked on was a leccie pre payment metering system for one of the big 6 here. Loved messing with formfill, DTC flows and the like.
Happy days.I couldn't give two fornicators! Yes, really!Comment
