    Depends if you have to work with anything bigger than a PC.

    tech-support and server-monkeys aren't /real/ IT.

    You're not in real IT until the heaviest thing you have to lift is
    turning the page on a flip-chart.

    Flip-charts? What, with stuff written on them with pens?

    How quaint.

    I know.

    I have a recording whiteboard on order, mind. There is, however a weird
    resistance here to ordering things that no-one has ordered before.
    Still, it only took 10 months for the iBook to turn up.

    I had a good feeling in a meeting today, possibly for the first time
    ever.

    Asking what I thought was a naive question[1], seeing as how I'm new
    to the project, and a touch peripheral, I got the response of:

    "Eh? What? Really? Oh, ****!", which was nice.

    Go live in four weeks, people. :)

    These screens have all been "tested", of course.

    [1] "Into which field does one input the transaction currency code? I
    can't recognise it on any of the screens?"

    I enjoy asking questions like that. Our lovely IT people are busy
    hatching a plot to transfer a whole pile of work from them to us [1] by
    giving us a nice "workflow" feature. They sent their nice innocuous
    document out for comment - none of the people they sent it to detected
    the subtle shift of responsibilities or the other possibilities for
    perverse behaviours. I therefore felt duty bound to "comment" on the
    document - the IM people would now like a meeting to discuss my
    "concerns". Hah!

    [1] I did a complete hatchet job on their official funding paper last
    Summer. I was not a popular person.

    Paul Corfield bored us all completely to death with wittery prose along
    the lines of:
    They obviously haven't learnt how to deal with you, have they?
