LB, when the bog is blocked at work, do you
1) Call maintenance
2) Take a dump anyway
3) Start shovelling the sh*t out and then present an invoice
4) Write a proposal to unblock the bog, and present it to the management
Or maybe you are a member of the maintenance team - you certainly know out to talk a lot of crapp.

So, funkyd, how's your proposal shaping up? You should have done your research and be well into writing up the first draft by now.

Originally posted by ratewhoreHaven't read the thread fully so don't know what industry or company you are talking about. This may be more than just an IT issue and you should really be looking to see what regulations apply. FSA, SOX, BASEL, FOI, DPA etc etc. Then you can put forward a compliant solution...
SOX - No
FOI - not sure yet
DPA - They ignore it
BASEL - tbc

It is a pleasure to put the get up and go and the fire back in the belly of a fellow contractor. I expect the OP to achieve no less than an exclusive supplier deal for the next five years to administer and maintain the email system. To be achieved by Monday next week.

I am a contractor. Must offer solutions. Must raise invoice.

If you want to get their attention then tell them how they stand to lose money over it. Make it a big number. Then tell them how you can fix it for a smaller number.
PM me if you want any hints on how to scare the hell out of non-IT directors

Wait for it to fall over.
