Re: Bit of a crap deal

by that definition, everyone in Canada is an idiot ( and I'm not arguing that point )

standard cost for smart phone plan with 6 Gig data per month is $100. coverage is spotty and speed is crap.

and no competition in sight.

3 year old

Had a Director that was a table pounder. the Oracle demand planning module wasn’t working because the install team ( external) never finished it and I wouldn't sign off on it. Buddy is shouting and pounding the desk yelling why isn't it working. ( because it wasn’t set up correctly by install team ) I look at him like he is 3 years old and don't say a word. In the mean time I am producing demand forecasts through MS Excel - yikes.

apparently I didn't need to say a word because 1 month later I was gone. I did keep a copy of the system install review that Oracle completed which proved that it was the 'world class' 3 letter external consulting company that was the cause. just in case my former company ever got ' stupid' down the road.

no consequences

as was said previously: ""So it will happen again and again and again..." - especially when you employ the cheapest, most unskilled tech folk you can find."

and the reason it will happen again and again is that there are no consequences for the toad that hired the cheap unskilled tech. the tech will get thrashed but the manager and director and VP above will still get bonuses even though everyone in the company knows who really is to blame.

Thsi type of farce has played out in every one of the companies I have worked for in my 30 years : / without exception.

until some higher up loses a bonus because they created a bad situation by faulty management ( Mr. Fawlty, Mr. Fawlty) it will continue as an endemic disease in all companies.
