Seriously ... fuck this. :mad:

Why do I have to deal with clients that are locked in the 20th fucking century when it comes to doing shit.

Dude I used to ask customers when I was in a call centre why the fsck they were using a PC if they couldn't just stop and think as to why their shit wasn't working when instead it was an ID10T error and they just forgot to power on their modem (56K back in the day that is) :rolleyes:
 
No ... this is more like the person who finalised the deal bending over and saying "Rape me, please", because in the end she's not the one having to do anything. Seriously ... listen to this system (I'm leaving out a lot of detail for confidentiality reasons, so bear with me)

The client is running a competition, for which users have to submit an entry - we have to run the competition for them - let me please specify that running a client's fucking competition for them is not in my job description.

They have to submit their entry via e-mail (strike 1)

We receive the e-mail - we have to verify it and then manually capture the details (strike 2), and then manually send an e-mail containing T&C's back to the entrant (strike 3), which the entrant must then approve and send back to us - via e-mail (strike 4).

There's no online entry, no online database that automatically captures the data - all because the client didn't want it.

Does this not sound to you like the most retarded idea since the universe decided dropping a rock on the planet 65 mill years ago would make a nice fireworks display for the dinosaurs?

Seriously - I think we'll upgrade the next time - I'll suggest they use carrier pigeons for their next competition. Fucking idiots.

People are idiots. I try to make peace with that fact.
 
I would love to make peace with the fact - and I could since usually I can get around to avoiding them. However, this time I can't avoid them, and this is resulting in me expending a lot of pointless effort, and there are few things in life I hate more than pointless effort.

This may also explain why I hate my current job so much.
