Well....maybe you need to bring lego blocks to work. That way, they can play with the construct before it goes into a 'puter program for compiling.

Are you looking for another job or is it pretty much the same where ever you go?

Mr STRUT-oral engineer changes his mind about 50 times..and that's after building starts?

 

[queenie82]

It's the same everywhere...

This is a more frustrating situation because there is stuff still unresolved that should have already been.

But...

It's all the same...

Engineers are the bane of my existence...

 

[queenie82]

So are you going to be working with your former client? At the evil company...

 

[PrincessInOz]

There's always a bane.

 

[queenie82]

True....
Just is especially head banging when there are 4 consultants from the same office....of the same company....but WE have to pick up the clashes
They apparently don't talk to each other...

 

[PrincessInOz]

That's the problem with consultants.....they are all nice people; except when their ego's get in the way.

 

[queenie82]

Yes....I'm sure you're MOST familiar with that little miss.....B.....S......artiste.....

 

[PrincessInOz]

So are you going to be working with your former client? At the evil company...

Sorry....I missed this question earlier.

Yes, I think so. Approval obtained for the position and head count. He's sorting out paperwork. I have high hopes that this will take (at least) 2 weeks. So that means that once I have an indicative start date, the office will forget about me and I get to stay home until I have to show up for work.

Even today, I was Miss Invisible with the account team; but that's because they know I'm sold out.

 

[queenie82]

Then it's from the sublime.....to the ridiculous....


Because so many of the one thing is being built....well...variations on a theme....so many variations



There have been HOURS AND HOURS AND HOURS of emails back and forth and discussions about light fittings...one...particular...light fitting....
In one location....

 

[PrincessInOz]

Yes....I'm sure you're MOST familiar with that little miss.....B.....S......artiste.....

I cannot tell a lie....

 

[queenie82]

It seems a pretty simple concept does it not....that.....
You can't put a column in a doorway....
Cross bracing through a window.....
A light fitting....on an AC duct...
A ceiling fan...on top of an AC duct...






All in the same office.....





But noone seems to notice?

 

[queenie82]

So yes...


That's my life....




Moving on....





Plans for the weekend?
Strawberry season has started in Victoria.

Sounds reasonable to me to put a crossbeam in a doorway. ESPECIALLY if it is placed at waist height. AND cross braced from top left to lower right as well as top right to lower left.

After this, it won't matter about the rest.

 

[queenie82]

Turning in now....



Results of a big meeting will come in tomorrow....



To determine just how much we still need to do

 

[PrincessInOz]

Good night. I'm turning in too.

Just suggest that the beam in the doorway needs crossbracing. I'm pretty sure that once you do that for all doorways, it won't matter about what happens inside.

 

[skiingfast]

Interference.

 

[skiingfast]

Suprisingly slow day, I hope everyone is doing ok.

 

[klmall]

Just checkin' in!

Wish it was slow here at work

Then I could have fun with the Games here!!!

40 days until we leave for WDW and the Poly!

Mom is doing better and complaining less but we'll see, she always has something up her sleeve!

Wishing well to all........

 

[usnuzuloose]

Good morning all! Finally a good nights sleep.
