    So you have a job, but so little budget you cant even pay minimum wage?

    Why dont you figure out how to get more budget first, instead of trying to figure out how to get more work done.

    "you sit your problem employee down and tell him exactly what your expectations for personal behavior are, and what you need him to do differently"

    Yeah, that was when I pretty much checked out at my last job.

  10. Re:Not true... on The Shortage of Women In IT · · Score: 1

    I think it is like this.
    5% of the contracts are supposed to be bid on first by female owned companies. However, this requires there be at least 2 bidders, so contracts are not just handed out. Since she is the only bidder in this case, she doesn't qualify for this program, and has to bid on the open market with the rest of the companies.

    Most companies dont have an actual process, they have whatever the last guy was doing. You see this stuff in code all the time. Some engineer in 1995 decided to call some db "Pants", and now the Pants db runs a multi billion dollar company.

    What, are you stupid? Ford brought jaguar around. British leyland had owned them and trashed them. Tata hasnt owned jag enough to do shit.

    "Now that British/American style management has been removed from JLR, there is much better long term planning, and much stronger investment in the product line."
