I love how our company things they're saving money by offloading our local Exchange to Microsoft's "cloud" Exchange. Now we have to wait 30 minutes for an attachment I emailed to the guy in the next office to show up. If that happens just once a week to the 4,000 people in the company that's an average 104,000 wasted man-hours every year. At the average pay/benefits rate that costs the company about $6.2 million. I hope they saved a lot of money outsourcing.
For real. I'm basically just a fucking analyst now. Sometimes I adjust a parameter.
Corporate "leadership" has been a game of survival of the most retarded for so long now that it's actually gone Full Retard. It's not just in software development, it's all around us, all of us. I drive a fork lift now and will spend my money on a welding certification, then a diving cert, and finally combine both skills. During which time, I'll also start to work on my CDL. I plan on becoming un-unemployable, if that makes sense.
