Jan. 6th, 2005 10:09 pmI'd bitch about work, but at the moment, i'm just about bitched out. Several of us have voiced our opinions to The Powers That Be, and, to the best of my knowledge, none of them have bothered to as much as brush any of us off. We have the people in place who are not only willing, but actually want to do what most folk would consider to be the scut work- and given the way these people interrelate and the personalities involved, we're the five people who could actually pull off something which looks like the mythic Agile Development- at least in terms of being able to rapidly adapt to changing circumstances and respond in a timely manner to users, and we're not even worth a courtesy 'thanks for voicing your opinions, but we didn't really want opinions even though we asked for them because we'd already decided what we were going to do' email. That kind of disrespect pisses me off.
Let's see- non-work stuff. I got a Maxfield Parrish calendar for my wall, and a page-a-day origami one. In Kingdom of Loathing, my Pastamancer (WingNut) made level 17 today. Weather forecasters are split between this continuing to be a mild winter and it turning into the fiercest one in Puget Sound since 1950 (when Seattle got three feet of snow and apparently kept it for most of a month).
Snow. Please.
Or do i suddenly feel as if i'm coming down with something?
