We have just been migrated to 'New and Better' application for accounting for our time spent per project at work. I think I am average employee who works roughly 40 hours a week. I can divide my time into MAXIMUM 7 different types of work....
- holiday (including flexi-time and time-off-in-lieu)
- sick (including time at home for sick offspring)
- network support (when stuff goes wrong)
- network implementation (new stuff)
- firewall support (when stuff goes wrong)
- firewall implementation (new stuff)
- meetings to discuss all the stuff that went wrong and the new stuff coming)
I have never seen such a bloated piece of software in my life (I have been in the computer industry for over 30 years). There are nearly 50 drop-down / roll-over / menu items on just the first page alone. When I go to choose the projects I would like to book my time to I am presented with over 140 choices (good grief)
Why couldn't I just have the projects I am allowed to book against? Why is it that more and more work is being done be the worker? There are no more secretaries because everyone uses a word processor! I even have to do my own performance review!
Oh yes the name of this wonderful piece of totally over priced over sized (it uses megabytes of space) over functioned (I don't want to look at how much time I had off-sick 2 years ago)...
