Busy Bee with a little frustation
August 29, 2006
It's getting busier and busier at work recently, mainly becuz everyone wants to get their stuff ready for the new school year.
One thing that strikes me is that working in a University, I "thought" ppl should be more organized. But apparently they are not.
I understand that they have other things to take care of during the Summer, but couldn't they at least be more prepared when they are asking others to do the work for them? And not so last minute?
Like they could have send the request for a new Web interface in the beginning of July, so that both ends would have enough time to make the best out of what we have. Instead, they send their request one week before school starts which is also the deadline.
Oh and bare in mind that we are not working one project at a time, usually we are working SEVERAL projects at the same time. So, with such a tight schedule, that gives us the minimal time to come up w/ a creative which also means the end result most likely will not be as good as if we actually have enough time.
The worst part is sometimes ppl have the illusion that creating a Web site is very easy. Yes, building a Web site is not that difficult if you don't care about usability, functionality and it's appearance.
I can build a Web site within an hour but it will look like crap and probably not very useful! Clients don't seem to recognize the fact that quality work takes an equal amount of quantity in time!!
Anyways, that's my little rant abt my work...lol















yeah i know my boss is pretty, and i wasn't referring to my boss here! it's those other ppl!!
the busiest time for me at work is jan to may or even june, since we go through rrsp season, new year and ppl want to save more money by putting into mutual funds, equities and the tax season.
the rest of the year is pretty lax for me. i was unbelievably free this week at work
