Down in Canberra for a few days to introduce some extra people to the project I am working on. After their first day today I am sure the smiles on their faces was bordering on insanity.
During the last 6 months on and off down in Canberra it has been an interesting roller coaster or success and frustration. The last few months however have been difficult due to the shear amount of work and the complexity of the dependencies.
To assist me and help replace the other software Architect that is leaving the project, we have started two extra people from Brisbane in Canberra on this project. After their first day today I am sure the smiles on their faces was bordering on insanity.
We have 5 streams of (relatively) independent work that needs to be performed to complete this particular job. This includes hardware purchases, software installs, configuration, testing and the co-ordination of approximately 6 different groups. Well to stop me from having a break-down we got the other guys involved.
Now I have worked with these guys on and off for about 5 years and feel a little sorry for them, this work will consume all they have and more.
Well I will keep you informed.
work hard, work happy :Ã
Hmmm…. thanks for inviting us down Tony. Certainly seems like a lot of fun down here. Haven’t had so much fun since the rabies treatment in Bangkok, but, as you know, thats another story…
Remind me to return the favour sometime 🙂
