Reply to: Contractor Sacking

[kaiser78]

Just to update on the outcome of this, I am still in contract as a first off and sigh if relief.

I decided to summarise the sequence of events that had led to where I ended up and discussed with my team lead / senior stakeholder. They saw where I was coming from (to a point), and in short, asked me to put together a corrrective plan of action.

So normal service resumed. Thanks for all comments.

So OP define cock-up?

1. Did something accidentally (i.e. logged onto wrong server and did something)?
or
2. Thought **** it and deliberately couldn't be arsed to do something properly which then went tits up?

That's not what my dad told me when I was little.

[NotAllThere]

So come on. 'fess up. Whatchado?

And how did you ever get into a position where you were responsible for your own work.

[northernladuk]

There are no accidents.

You'd think they'd let Mrs Mordac have some dignity and rest in peace.

You're in no position to give lectures on "dignity".

Under Mordac's new patio?

*cough* You're not supposed to know about that. Lemme guess, the KGB told you...

Maybe saying it was amusing is giving it too much credit but in short sent a mail to some contractors advising how we book travel and invoice at a clients. Unfortunately mentioned reward points as well which permies don't get and some dick accidently forwarded it to a permie.

Bunch of snowflakes. Now, if you were MF, it would've been a different matter - transporting that fatberg involves some serious reward points.
