Started working on basically the other end of your pipe.
The little firm sells IT outsourcing to big uns.

So basically a German and an Indian will start speaking English at each other.
What could possibly go wrong? LMAO!

Funny how the boss of that outfit just up and started it, had no problems whatsoever turning profit, while some guy without the right connection can start such shit only if when he manages to make the sun shine out of his ass. If at all. But most likely NOT at all, as one usually isn´t in the right “club”.

Can´t wait for all this shit to implode.

Hylarious!

It just got too old, slow, and couldn’t handle newer software/protocols etc. without crapping itself regularly.

Related to money, spearhead is asking for donations again. Apparently it costs $2,500/yr to run…

Data Entry.

Get emailed a new schedule from one of our suppliers, each with their own format – pdf, xml, doc – print it out. Load up a program from 1999 which doesn’t allow ctrl+c/ctrl+v. Type in the numbers. Stamp the schedule, put it in an enormous binder which is going to take up space forever.

Wait for the next schedule.

This entire job – a floor of 100 people – should have been handled by the equivalent to an internet/cell phone router (those schedule data packets rather than oil, but the principle is the same) and maybe a half-dozen people to deal with emergencies.

At the very minimum my job shouldn’t have existed. I eventually got laid off for doing it too well – managed to compress 8 hours into 2 – laughing at them now, since most people aren’t capable of doing it that fast. I know they got hammered as soon as I left.

If a hapless poLiceman/minion dares walking in he finds his ass on the street in NO time.

BTW on Cyprus, just the other day I listened to a podcast and it talked about on site experience of the expats there.

According to them the place is pretty close to a matriarchy as females are the “breadwinners” by now.
People seem to be alternating between disbelief and furious anger, the only reason shit isn´t going down is because the men are unarmed and the bitches haven´t decide what do do yet.

I´m keeping the Popcorn ready, especially when it finally dawns on ze Germans that it´s mainly our asses on the line here as “we” are pretty much the only ones left with some decent funds.
