And I thought yesterday was annoying..

ByMike McBride Reading Time: 1 minute

Today’s been just as bad. Not much time for blogging, I’ve got 7 work days left before I head out to Gnomedex, and my vacation afterwards, with one of those being a Microsoft Small Business Solutions Event day. That leaves me 6 days to get all of the work for the rest of this month done, all the while working with a fairly new staff person, and a brand new one that starts Monday, trying to get them up to speed on what they need to know.

Of course, this is the time that people who haven’t needed anything from me in months come crawling out of the woodwork demanding stuff that is not going to be quick and easy!

I’ll need a vacation by the time I’m done with this!

    I haven’t really taken a good look at the Lockergnome Forums in about a week, and with a spare 15 minutes today I decided to pop in and browse around and see what the topics are in Gnomie land. Then the entirety of the problem I have with them hit me. It’s too freakin’ big!…

    Shannon made an interesting point in the comments on that last post about IT outsourcing: “What gets me more is that you have to have patience with your co-workers as they repeat the same mistakes again and again (like trying to send an email with a 15mb attachment). When you outsource this kinda stuff, people…

    Gee I didn’t post anything yesterday. You’d think I was majorly busy or something wouldn’t you? I do have to come up with a way to recommend people stop doing something in Outlook. You see every week, I write up a “Tip of the Week” and send it out to all of our staff. Mostly…
