14 February: The police force of TPDVille has been reinforced.

Is celebrating St Valentine's Day an offence in TPDVille? Or are they preparing for another massacre?

Another busy day for me!

And it started with a palinilap.

Can't you get agency timesheets signed then?

ClientCo won't sign the agency timesheets (which I fill in) unless the times match the times on the SAP timesheet system (which I fill in). A quality audit check there!

I couldn't enter my timesheets because an HR numpty has to set you up on that system.

Said HR numpty has now caught up. But now I have no codes to charge time to.

Beancounter: "That's because you need project codes to charge your time to."
Me: "They won't be allocated until the project has been approved and that can take 3 months."
Beancounter: "Not my problem."

If I haven't got timesheets signed on Monday I am likely to go ape-tulip.

No - fix security first, so there's no riots that damage the infrastructure further.

Fascist!

I tried to make someone's job much easier yesterday by agreeing that we didn't need them to manually enter some data.

The technology partner wants a formal change control to document this change to OUR business process

Your technology partner is winning.

Do you not have a competent individual facing opposite their account manager, backed up by a co-ordinated supplier management strategy?

If you're in a PPP or PFI set-up, that's what you need.

Absolutely. Some of us can achieve that on most days.

Some bloody lurker got the pali.

But it's really just me who eats them.

Getting to 82000 is feeling like an uphill slog.

Gave up with the single opamp twin tee... it oscillated nicely & that was all.

The dual opamp twin tee with gain control works a treat.

I knew you all wanted to know that.

When your day consists of being on the bench, or filling in brain-damaged Business Case forms or Financial Project spreadsheets, reading about someone else who is Actually Making Things is very reassuring.

Keep up the progress reports.
