04/02: Helpful.. not!
After a stellar yesterday of legal lunch and free pie today pales in comparison and is chalk-full of annoyances and craziness.
Mentoring was fine and dandy.. a bit rushed with the potential snow but doable. I got here and found a grip of emails asking about work requests I haven't seen back from estimating and the great beyond. *ggrr*
The it was how about I fix a problem I am not even sure we *can* fix. The job screwed something up, but moved five or six versions past that until they realized what was up. It might be a simple fix.. it might not be.
The dossie of a problem came when I finally got an email back from this guy.. who put in a work item last October.. and now refuses to help find a solution or even tell me how he replicated it. Let me repeat that - he is not refusing because he doesn't know or what not.. no.. he is refusing because it's not his job and the report has all these other errors on it which makes the original one pale in comparison. Eh.. what? Thanks..
Now I have to go track down someone to validate this claim that the report is out of whack to some bad degree and hope they can replicate what ever this guy was jabbering about.
*sigh* A nice wooden bat would do well some days.
