It started off as just another day in the Asylum.
Well not just any old day, but a Friday. The countdown to the weekend had been started. The coffee brewed. and all was well!
Then IT happened.
And not a cool interesting intergalactic space spider who likes to disguise herself as a friendly clown called Pennywise. No not a good IT at all.
He thrusts his fists against the posts and still insists he sees the ghosts.
No this IT was getting called into a phone meeting, something that to date has tended to go the same way every time. I go into the meeting, i sit about for an hour listening to the marketing guys discuss what name to give things, then I have a ten minute contribution about the development, then another hour of pointless marketing drivel. (I think I fell asleep at one point in the last meeting I went to).
This was luckily just a 15 minute quick meeting to discuss what is the next area of development to concentrate on. You see the site in question is getting a major overhaul and is currently in a situation where the development site can be made live. There is just some final testing going on. This testing will be finished today, so the site will be live by Monday.
Yet in the meeting, the Governor decided that we needed a development site for the development site. So that while the development site is being tested to go live, a development version of the development site can be worked on. Now, should any bugs be found in the development site they would have to be fixed there and the fix duplicated to the development, development site. while new work is done there. We now have three versions of a site, all for the sake of waiting a day.
I don’t know if any of you can see the sense in that, I know I can’t.
Ah well on with the multiple dev site creating.
