Feeling better

Yep Bitch fit is out the way and that is all on that.

Sometimes it beggars believe the things we get asked to do at work. There I was sat talking to Mr R when Skinner wonders over. HE is one of the many Chiefs we have here that have somehow been shoe horned into another level management.

Skinner - "Thanks for putting the swine flue article up on the Intranet"
Me - "No Probs big Dawg" (Or words to that affect)
Skinner - "With the current situation we will need to daily updates so you will need to go and Speak to Mr Director to sort this out"
Me - "Que??"
Skinner - "you will need to go and Speak to Mr Director about this"
Me - "Riiiiiiiiiiiighhhhhhhhhhtttt"

So what he is saying is that me a lowly pleb needs to go and ask the director whether he is doing his job properly. When in all honest if he wants something doing he will just whistle and everyone will come running. So I am not going to go and ask him if he is ready. The guy knows exactly who he needs to talk if he wants to get something done.

I want even mention the skipping of the ITIL principles* that we are forced make all users use.

That is all,

*Raising a request through out nice new services online system, and the fact that everything should have a request before we look at it.
