Project Doom found a new low
Jan. 3rd, 2013 06:49 pmThis week, I thankfully only had to work two days because my schedule ended up with me taking my regular alternate Friday tomorrow. We began Project Doom: Phase V and there was a point yesterday when I got deeply suspicious because the data looked surprisingly good. Sensible. Hopeful.
It's fine, we found all the ways in which it's not going to work *headdesk*
In completely shocking news, the team building the source app and the business analysts GAVE US COMPLETELY FALSE INFORMATION ABOUT A KEY TABLE. Imagine my surprise. That's never happened before on this project.
And now I don't need to look at it for three days, which is about how long it's going to take for me to stop randomly venting about how stupid it all is.
And so I came home, checked my oil tank (because I haven't had any delivered for two months and it's cold) and called the oil company to find out when they plan to deliver next. I persuaded them that it would be cheaper to come out tomorrow than let me run dry over the weekend and have to send out a delivery tanker plus a guy to bleed the lines and restart the furnace.
Theoretically they top up my oil automatically. They appear to be massively miscalculating how much oil I use and I'm very frugal with my heal so I don't know what they're doing *sigh* Hopefully what I've got will last until tomorrow's delivery.
In other news, I appear to be writing a circus AU. IDEK. trope_bingo is already inspiring way too many fic ideas.
