I can't help but feel disappointed on the project as a whole. When you have a fixed immovable deadline, then all the little deadlines in between times are really really important.
2 weeks from go-live, no working test environment, what fragments of a test environment we have I have migrated the data into. It's in about the shape I thought it would be on the first attempt. Oh ok, a wee bit worse, but the team I've been given aren't that great.
Still for all my warnings, and "I must have this by this date", we are now well and truly in the tulipe.
But still the PMs are upbeat and positive. There is no one on the team that doesn't get just how ****** things are. It's palpable.
I have to know how these guys can ignore the sage advice of a seasoned contractor, that delivers 2-3 data migrations per year, let it all fall to tulip and just keep smiling?
