Subject:Unexpected as always!! From:"Radwa Darwish" <radwa -dot- darwish -at- microtech -dot- com -dot- eg> To:"TECHWR-L" <techwr-l -at- lists -dot- raycomm -dot- com> Date:Mon, 13 Jan 2003 14:57:45 +0200
I will not start complaining about the chaos atmosphere.. or the plans that
never seem to be accomplished on schedule because of the series of unplanned
tasks.. I will take a deep breath and act rationally.
Just a couple of minutes ago a new mail from my boss arrived with a new
unplanned and urgent task. Here is what it said..
"Please arrange a session ASAP for both programmers and QC about
abbreviating, capitalizing, punctuation, and the sort.
As simple as it may sound, it will save us a lot of precious time.
Thanks."
I am not itched about the session I worked as a teacher before.. I am just
bothered by two things.. first is I have to get out of what I have been
involved in for a while and that will mess a little with my plan , second
neither the developers or the QC officers will ever listen.. and I will be
going through the same mistakes in interface and demo data..
Has any of you gone through this before? Please feedback with your valuable
experiences...
Regards,
Radwa
