pushing Permi role - heading for a warning!

[d000hg]

The git! The cheek of writing code to solve his customer's problems, rather than for his competitors' reading pleasure.

And his shortcomings have resulted in more work being put your way. Why aren't you grateful?

Because he has to re-write it and is being financially penalised?

[Liability]

ok, so the two job thing isn't exactly going well....trying to be a contractor by night and a permi during the working hours has had HR to file a "review meeting" with projects now being delivered under expectations.

going in next week - me thinks, for a warning?

was forced into taking unauthorised absence from the permi job, to cover the work left by the 2nd contractor on the contracting by night job....now things are getting a tough - thinking i should ideally use one over the other. i have also started job hunting to try and land a decent contract...

help!!

Are you a FOB in the UK? You sound it.

4. code written to "fix a problem" rather than written in a clean and manageable manor.

there is nothing to do

These sockpuppets really are becoming extremely tiresome. People really need to grow up and get a life.

Come on, which of you children created "SajStars"?

[d000hg]

...<and yes the perm boyz are making things increasingly difficult, by providing examples of me not meeting process, however there is nothing to do and the motivation is cr5p.

Saj

I think the motivation is the salary and benefits they provide.

Well its one of the boyz of india, who screwed this <contract> project. His code was incomplete and full of bugs, on top of that he wrote the code in such a way no one on Earth would understand.

Saj

Sounds like the usual India Rope trick, but getting your man in there who
only understands that code means they can't get rid of him!! These types
of contract is what all indian boys and girls dream of, because it guarantees
unlimited supply of rupees.

[SajStars]

Saj why don't you get uncle chetty from india to come over and help you
on the contract, if that works out just keep importing more cha cha's until
you are filthy rich!

Well its one of the boyz of india, who screwed this <contract> project. His code was incomplete and full of bugs, on top of that he wrote the code in such a way no one on Earth would understand.

By that i mean that:
1. he used global modules and variables, when he should have used class.
2. mix of business and form logic at form level
3. multitude number of calls to fillData to refresh the same gridview.
4. code written to "fix a problem" rather than written in a clean and manageable manor.

when i challenged him about point 1 during the development - he told me it was nothing to do with me and i was 'blocking' him from completing. now as it stands the client needs more of my time to rewrite the development he was supposed to complete

no problem i said, however then we started talking about budget constraints and things, so whilst it is a contract for work in the evening - its going to be a delayed payment.

Are you related to Wilmslow by any chance? You sound just like him.

I don't expect you are real. But "unauthorised absence" in a permie job? Have you heard of calling in sick?

If they think you're playing them for fools, they'll use the fact that "you phoned at 9.06am but the contract clearly states you must inform about absence due to sickness before 9am" to mark it as unauthorised.
