Top 10…
Posted in Work on 04/04/2007 08:53 pm by enjanerdTop 10 reasons why my 5:30 telecon took an hour longer than it needed to:
10. 5:35: Oh, everyone’s already here? I thought I was early.
9. Can we add a column to this spreadsheet?
8. Let’s make sure our color-coding is consistent with other documents.
7. Should we concern ourselves with the fuel near the water having a different viscosity due to the difference in temperature?
Seriously? This is a major concern? But, you know, let’s discuss it anyway…
6. We need to make sure these aren’t like pizza boxes.
5. “When you make an update to that drawing, would you send [person in unrelated department] an email notice?”
4. When referring to these tanks, let’s use an asterisk with a comment in the “Remarks” column.
3. Would you start a new document that tracks each change?
They’re already documented in the “Remarks” column.
No, I mean a new document to track each weight change that might occur.
That’s also documented in the
weight report.
2. Let’s clarify. When are you using “TBD” and when are you using “N/A”?
1. Who will be in charge of deleting these lines from the spreadsheet? Currently, they are highlighted in red to indicate they are to be deleted. Who will do the actual deleting?
QOTD: “Hi Australia, this is NewGirl. May I speak with Bill please?”
