New org chart. Same three people.
Consultants at CHF 240 an hour, strategic directions every quarter, procurement's cheapest supplier. Somebody still has to do the work.
What to wear while you fix it.
Everything below was built for exactly this moment. The team will be in a meeting about it. You won't.
BB-07 The Excel Macro Nobody Understands
Wear it when payroll runs on a macro written in 2011 by a man who now lives in Ascona.
CB-03 The Reorg
Wear it when HR announces the third "new strategic direction" this year.
UR-10 Neu The Delivery That Came Early
Wear it when the delivery booked for Thursday arrives on Tuesday at 06:10.
BB-10 The Handover From the Guy Who Quit
Wear it when your colleague quit, and his handover fits on one page with room to spare.
CB-04 Hiring Day
Wear it when six candidates are coming in today and the panel prepared by forwarding the invite.
UR-01 Procurement Ordered the Wrong Part
Wear it when the part arrives in 14 layers of plastic, and it's the wrong part.
BB-11 The Vendor Demo
Wear it when procurement signed the contract the day before the demo.
CB-07 The Budget Meeting
Wear it when finance wants a 12 % cut across the board, and "the board" means your team.
UR-03 The Zip Tie Nobody Cut
Wear it when the new rack has been strapped to its pallet since Tuesday, and nobody owns the zip ties.
UR-24 The Dam Inspection
Wear it when the annual dam check is at 1,900 metres and the consultant arrives by helicopter.
UR-31 Somebody Else's Project
Wear it when you inherit a project, sharp edges and all.
UR-32 The Dirty Work
Wear it when the team "delegates."
UR-33 The Office Move
Wear it when the reorg moves 60 people two floors up and "everyone packs their own desk."
UR-36 Scrap Metal Day
Wear it when the yard gets cleared once a year and management calls it "Lean Day."
UR-38 The Post-it on the Sink
Wear it when the office kitchen sink has been blocked since Tuesday and has four Post-its on it.
Nothing from this line for this one. Somebody else's department.
Which means it's yours anyway. Clear the filter.
For the group chat. Reto is in it.
Screenshot, send, say nothing. He'll work it out eventually. Probably in a meeting.
@chrampfe Reto: "Who's taking the action item?" Everyone: looks at you.
