True about the 'both ways', yes! Not sure this is the right thread to bring it up but; we're in the middle or a reorganisation, and one of the agreements is that people who work for the company longer have some more 'rights'. Very fair, but also means the new and young people are more likely to...

oh, and another thing you said; "but as long as you have direct access to the ear of the developers, you have a unique opportunity. " Yes, that is completey true!! But, since the company is growing sometimes people don't like that I *am* in touch with the programmer... if the tool...

Well, it not that I don't publicise the defects, hm, maybe what I do is tell the company or builder first, instead of the comunity. So far most of it is solved in no time. They also asked me to help out with beta-testing, which kind of makes me involved with the product in another way then...

Hi all! To start with; I reached this side a while ago, looking for some technical details... on the 'Peregrine Systems Solutions forum', which is not too active (other sides took over, I am often there, sorry;-), but I did stick around because of discussions in fora like this. So I don't have...

Hi all, Just a little experience 'from the other side'... A while ago I had a discussion with a projectleader who's way of working I cannot and will never appreciate (he's the kind of making plans with mgmt behind closed doors and then let the 'plebs' know what they have to do, no teamwork...

Haha, I get your drift, and I love the way you say it!! ;-)

Thanks for all the reactions! CajunCenturion: You're completely right. Problem is I am not the projectleader, he's on a holiday. I always take over when he does (and thing always go wrong the moment he leaves the building;-). Mgmt asked for a quick solution on the problem, so we thouht of a...

I don't think customers are idiots at all, exactly the reason why I said no to the whole idea! I think that is a way of thinking not done any more, now! Getting late here now, so no repsonse from my part here for a while, not that I don' want to, but we have a little time difference here... if...

And again, this is another subject/thread maybe... I I would rather tell them where we went wrong and look them in the eyes afterwards, then lie to them and they will not take me serious ever again. Maybe this is more a personal thing, but still... I rather be imberassed by telling we...

Thanks, I know what you mean. Worse; he is hired, I am not. But he is (was?) good and so his response completely confused me! But getting the picture now, I was not wrong here;-) Will take me some time to explain and put things in 'customer-language' for them to understand, but eventually i...

Well, my company *is* the client! But yes, I do feel it's unethical, and to be honest, lazy and unprofessional. but I was completely stunned for a moment by that suggestion and that look that said 'Don't you know how it's done?'

Hi all, Today we found out that to 'keep a promise' a lot of work should be done (we overlooked some 'minor details', ahum..) One of the suggestions was 'Cant't we just say it is not possible?' My answer was that it would 1. be lying 2. never stand, customers are not as dumb as you think, so...

BHAX: I am glad to read you go fot it! Wish you all the best! Haven't got the nerve to do the same yet (30, single, female, completely fed up with company but... bought a house that kind of keeps me where I am right now...), anyway, enjoy reading others *are* doing it! Am sure that you and your...

Hi, there is a document on supportsite about Crystal an trouble with making sc-reports (including erros and possible solutions). I am not too good at it (only admin, do not make reports), but know a lot of people had simular problems. Second idea; try searching/asking on sc-resources.net, al...

Very true! Gender has nothing to do with it, it's all about attitude I think!

"I still have a sneaky and totally unjustifiable tendancy to assume that someone giving programming tips on-line under a female name is more likely to be a weirdo male nerd than a genuine professional IT female." Funny you mention that. I have been emailing on technical stuff with a...
