I had essentially this conversation with a sort of high level guy at my work today. Part by voicemail, part by email, but if it were an actual conversation I’m sure it would have gone exactly like this. For purposes of this posting, we’ll call him “Lumberg”
Lumberg: “I need this done for Start Of Business tomorrow.”
Me: “You mean Monday.”
Lumberg: “No tomorrow.”
Me: “Well, it’s Saturday 3p making tomorrow Sunday, so you must mean Monday not tomorrow because today is Saturday and there is no ‘Start Of Business’ on Sunday.”
Guy: “No, no – me and some of the higher ups of the company are meeting with the customer tomorrow.”
Me: “On Sunday?”
Lumberg: “On Sunday.”
Me: “….?”
Lumberg: “Yeah we’re gonna need you to work on Saturday… Yeaaah…. And about the cover sheets on your TPS reports…”
Me: “….!?!?!?!”
Lumberg: “Yeaaaaaah…”
Work Bow

Last night I got a call around 7:00 pm to dial into a conf call about an urgent issue. So I did. I ended up working until about 8:30 on it.
Then around 10:30, I saw on my phone that i had missed calls since 10:00 about dailing in again about another related issue. So again reluctantly I called in. They asked for changes to the work I had done. No one was talking timeline so I specifically asked. They wanted it developed, tested, and in production for 8am this morning. BOW.
So I did the development. But because this was so last minute, all the people who normally do the migrations from the dev to test environments weren’t around. Cause they’re sane people and were sleeping at 1:00 am when I completed the work.
So now it’s past 8am, it’s stuck in dev and I haven’t even heard anything back from management about the effect of this not being in or how critical it is to our customer or any crap like that.
Fuck You Project Bob Evans. Fuck You.
I need a new job. Bow.
And BOW the economy.
