      Very foggy now, more so than when I drove to work. The factory opposite, less than 100 metres away, has disappeared in the space of 10 minutes.

        "We need a system which must allow users to press buttons"

        Oh and apparently that is the most important part taking 60-70 % of the project time.

        So the detailed design, build, test etc only takes 30%-40%..

        Good Morning cukers


        This one just seems to either promise things and not document them or repeats requests regardless of the impossibility of doing the requested task.

        My favourite bit was taking a technical design spec, rewriting it while adding additional work and not telling anyone of the changes....

            Morning!

            Very foggy here and loadsa traffic. Took me almost twice as long to get in. Leathers covered in condensation. Not suite so but need more sleep. Now on the green teas to see if that makes a difference.

              Bored.

              Now.

              And this piece of PIC software isn't working right.



              And I can't see why not.

              Ho hum.

              The simulator says it ought to go, but the hardware seems to disagree.

              Ho very hum.

                Mostly coz the keypress handler was full of bugs.

                It works now.

                But only if you realise that key 1 is in the middle, key 2 is on the right and key 3 is on the left.

                That was so clever(?) I confused myself.

                    It's sad when the clientco office is more Christmassy looking than my dark, empty house.

                      Right, now I'm going to do fook all until I go home because HP QC wanky tulipty stupid overpriced useless piece of turd tool has crashed, and when I log in again it's locked all my objects and tells me 'Object locked by user MTT'. Advice from resident QC 'expert' on detachment from HP; 'try it again tomorrow'.
