uncleal's Diaryland Diary ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- data entry, and anal retention If I don't write about this soon, I will explode with Frustration!!!!
I am working on a project where there is a mathematical solution to each exam, but instead of letting a computer do the math, they had a doctor complete them all. 536 of them. In a hurry. She gets them wrong. All. The. Time. And here I am, just the data entry clerk. No degree to speak of, no reason that I should be the one catching all the problems, except that I'm anal retentive enough to find patterns and stick to them, and hate when I see something fall away from that pattern. And it's driving me nuts that I have to go to my boss and point out the 60+ times that she's been wrong, that I've caught. And these are just the ones where I was paying attention. It wasn't asked of me, so I don't know when it occurred to me that someone ought to be checking her work. AAAARRGGHH!!! And what makes it worse, is that somebody suggested that we write a program to let a computer do the work, and she said NO! What kind of ego-centric idiot does it take to not let the computer do what it's good for??? OK, I feel better. Back to your regularly scheduled program of sex, adultery, and basic slime-ball whining from me. 9:57 A.M. - Tuesday, Feb. 06, 2007 ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- |
