Been doing test management for a few releases of this project now, and we pie off literally around 9 out of 10 defects they raise because either they can't be replicated or it's user error. Have no time for them now.

It's a joke man, they raised a priority 2 bug in the last release near the end of the project. I ran down to their room shitting my pants, turns out that some woman who supposedly uses the app day in, day out for her job had seen the "You've been inactive for too long, so we have logged you out. Click here to log in again" screen and didn't even bother to read it. ffs.

That's the required length of time to see if anybody at the depot wants to rob it. If it's 24 hours on the back of the card, that means they suspect it's shit, so will need less time to think about it.

I've had people REPLY ALL to a global announcement email along the lines of "Please remove me from this mailing list" sort of shit, which sets off a worldwide cavalcade of shit as people start REPLYING ALL to that person asking them not to REPLY ALL and then it escalates and before you know it you have over 500 emails on a single subject.

Not that I work for a fucking communications company or anything :u:

was really looking forward to working at theater yesterday (currently the sound designer for this show) but the fucking auditorium was being used for some presentation so it delayed me and the rest of the crew by 2 hours, and the stnuc wouldn't clear out for at least another 20 minutes. couldn't reposition mics, could EQ actors, couldn't do jack fuckin shit. quite mad about that.

That was just generic saying he rarely turns up to shows, I would have thought they'd have gone a bit harder on him and made a point of bringing up the show he missed 2 days previous to that event. Was just a little surprised the no-show 2 days before didn't get a name check, no article, no nothing.. but him turning up to an event gets a whole article.

I suppose him turning up to an event is more news than him not turning up
