they're so hellbent on "metrics" and data data data that they start to impede the fucking RESULTS.

IT isn't about trying to rapid fire solutions. it's about doing the damned job RIGHT>

i wish that kind of silliness was limited to the government

my dad got hit by that kinda bs really hard when he worked for accenture

they wanted efficiency reports and progress updates and basically for him to take the time to keep a diary every second of the day

no one could get anything done

RIDICULOUS.

jesus. i hate that stuff so much

man.. i never had to do that kind of stuff when i was doing a contract with the government, but then again I was something between a

contractor and full time employee. If they wanted updates they bugged my boss, but i never had to report anything!

yeah it's fuckin' dumb. just step back and see who gets shit done, and done RIGHT

yeahhh results should matter, not how you got there

i mean they're not in school anymore, it's not as if you have to 'show your work', as long as you get it done!

then again I had my boss to thank for that, he was big on just getting things done on time. he could care less if I didn't show up

as long as I got things handed in for the deadlines!

(which usually meant working regular hours anyway so it's not like it looked bad, lol)

yeah, exactly...not to mention it's absolutely insulting to be babysat

i think here the bosses are just so detached from the actual operations they need graphs and shit to show wha'ts up

we're getting creative - we might have solutions
