garpet 1,
since computers have been unleashed onto the mindless masses, mindlessness has quadrupled. everyone who can download some dumb song thinks they are bees knees. In my work the paper trail has increased 5-fold despite the facility of storing data on hard disk. The government has IT sections by the hundreds but is unable to retrieve a simple email or report without the standard excuse of 'we're receiving too many requests". This is why computers were invented for crying out loud. PANDORA's BOX hasn't even had it's lid touched yet with what's yet to come. presently there are still some people who think when they do something.
I have already observed people who roll up stoned & hungover & then sit in front of Government computers. luckily, most of them only play solitaire. you just wait when these morons get up the ladder in the public service. you won't need to open PANDORA's BOX, it'll fly open by itself.

Individual, I think we can all tell that you are likely to be part of a generation of people who were born prior to the current Generation Y. You actually seem to think about working for a living and actually seem to think about doing something other than wanting to find a nice computer game you can play while you 'earn' your money.

All credit to you!

that you may find interesting.

I will most likely comment on this at another time when I write about "The New Dickensian Era" aka "Great Expectations of Generation Y"

Back on subject - In most organisations there are state of the art monitors and desk top boxes provided for the use of staff. Often alas, the infrastructure behind what is provided to them, is either complete crap or shall we say "less than useful"

If you know anything about computing at all you will know that unless you have a decent set of people and processes to manage what goes in an what comes out of computers then more often than not you have GIGO or garbage in and garbage out.

If you are so completely peeved with what's going on in your work place, what are you TRYING to do about it and why have you failed?

thanks for that garpet1, I hope it wakes a few people up.

Pandora's box. I just love this train of thought. LOL.
Answer this! When you ask your self a question, who are you asking"?.

evolution - "the sounds of silence" (with apologies to the musicians who have performed this song) seem to reign in your brain - I do not see your answer along with your question. So who are YOU asking?
