I actually had work to do at my job last week. I'm not exactly happy about it though. It's work that shouldn't have needed done. Let me
First, I coded (I'm a programmer) something according to the way the (l)users told me. Now, they're in testing and say "Well, that's not the way we wanted it to work". So, now it's got to be changed.
Second they say "Well, such and such wasn't supposed to happen" Well, did you tell me that in the first place? No.
These 2 things wouldn't really be that much work, they are just annoying, because had I been informed, I could have done it in the first place.
The Third thing though... oh, that kinda drove me insane (and is what I'm supposed to be working on now, but hey, my server is booting up, so I've got a minute). They told us to delete one little line out of the instructions. Not a big deal? That one little line put a restriction on who was eligible to file. If that restriction is no longer there, quite a few of our edit checks are no longer supposed to be there too, and it completely changes the way we allow people to login to the form!!! GRRR. When this was brought up, the lady in charge of the (l)users says "Did I not tell you taht before?" This is supposed to done and tested and deployed in 2 1/2 weeks. Grrr. Now, I have to get back to work.
