Great Timing  

The admission that transit shutdown half the terrace tunnel at rush hour on Friday morning, causing gridlock out to Newtown and Kilbirnie, reminds me of another splendid blunder of impecible timing.
The {$EMPLOYER} has a bonus scheme, based on setting goals at the start of the year and then assessing them at the end of the year (I will resist the temptation to comment on this).
The whole thing is web-based, and so gets a thrashing twice a year January for assesssment, February for setting up the next year.
So guess when the neanderthals that manage the this system decide that they will do an upgrade of the software behind this application? Yupe .. right now, nice one guys!
Extra bonus point for the personnel HR people who have sent out an e-mail to everyone with a 1.7 Mb spreadsheet attachment (laden with pointless-but-pretty graphics) instead.
