ahhhh

2019-12-19 14:33:27 UTC  

Even though there's no scientific evidence that polygraphs are at all useful?

2019-12-19 14:33:49 UTC  

I think you're gonna hear a lot of those Jet haha

2019-12-19 14:34:35 UTC  

The fact that hes on his phone all day means heโ€™s not in a scif

2019-12-19 14:34:53 UTC  

Yeah polys are junk science

2019-12-19 14:35:03 UTC  

But govt still requires them

2019-12-19 14:35:06 UTC  

Sounds like the gubmint to me ๐Ÿ™„

2019-12-19 14:35:30 UTC  

So A TS but no SCIF makes me think DoE

2019-12-19 14:36:28 UTC  

I'm kind of glad that I was only in Department of Health, if I had to deal with that level of inefficiency I probably would've combusted

2019-12-19 14:36:56 UTC  

Anyway, I'd be careful speculating too much, we have eyes in here even if they never talk

2019-12-19 14:37:07 UTC  

The private sector isn't always better.

2019-12-19 14:37:14 UTC  

That's very true

2019-12-19 14:37:18 UTC  

The corp I work for has loads of inefficiencies.

2019-12-19 14:37:30 UTC  

Imagine my face when I had to tell nurses that they couldn't reuse needles that they dropped

2019-12-19 14:37:41 UTC  

on a completely unrelated note, don't get sick, fellas

2019-12-19 14:37:47 UTC  

Lol

2019-12-19 14:38:07 UTC  

Well im definitely gonna keep an ear open for that nasally voice

2019-12-19 14:39:08 UTC  

Urgent care nurses* I was linking back to the private sector bit

2019-12-19 14:39:15 UTC  

Apologies, I haven't had my coffee yet

2019-12-19 14:39:35 UTC  

Been waking up at 5am in solidarity with my wife (and because I do more when I wake up early)

Example - working on this project and we have a contract with VendorCompany. VendorCompany's solution to accomplish a certain task was using an archaic technology that literally everyone has abandoned. The contract does not stipulate we must use this solution, but if we do it's included in the cost. It would take months and months to get this working and even then it would be unstable and result in long term support issues. I found another vendor where we could get the task up and running in days, save boatloads of money, and require almost no support. The answer? "With VendorCompany it's free."

It's not fucking free if you're paying your employees to focus on this shit for years when it breaks down constantly.

2019-12-19 14:40:58 UTC  

WOW

2019-12-19 14:41:05 UTC  

What crap!

2019-12-19 14:41:06 UTC  

Imagine having to explain this to an *accountant*

2019-12-19 14:41:22 UTC  

Sounds like a bad accountant...

2019-12-19 14:41:33 UTC  

They're the division business owner. Failed upwards.

2019-12-19 14:41:40 UTC  

If you can say, how archaic are we talking here?

2019-12-19 14:41:46 UTC  

๐Ÿ™„

2019-12-19 14:42:15 UTC  

Like, we need a real-time function. VendorCompany's solution was to send a flat file to an FTP site every night, and have a batch process do its thing once every 24 hours.

2019-12-19 14:42:34 UTC  

I... what

2019-12-19 14:42:42 UTC  

Would require all sorts of parsing validation and prayers that the file is received on time.

2019-12-19 14:43:31 UTC  

was the process coded on punch-cards, too

2019-12-19 14:43:48 UTC  

This is for what should be real-time pushes of notifications via email/SMS to customers when they demand it lol

2019-12-19 14:45:15 UTC  

hahaha

2019-12-19 14:45:39 UTC  

How do you keep your head from exploding??

2019-12-19 14:45:52 UTC  

Money helps. Legitimately would quit though if they force the FTP solution.

2019-12-19 14:46:04 UTC  

There are plenty of places I can do this work.

2019-12-19 14:46:13 UTC  

Baller ๐Ÿ‘Œ

2019-12-19 15:10:34 UTC  

As jesse lee peterson would say

I think Matt did a great job defending freedom from the porno banners
