SY01 will not be canned. He is my padawan

Will shuffle off to other threads and administer any necessary lecture(s) (have to hand my lines in anyway)

Well? Update, please, SY01.

SY01 is the new MarillionFan.

He won't last the week.

Previous BA left after 12 weeks owing to "family commitments" - fooling no one. His predecessor left did not renew after 6 months given the option.

The user community hate the system. The development has been recently off shored, and the development team speak really bad English.

The Programme manager is a petulant child with no grasp on reality.

This is my first full time BA role, and there is too much politicking and negativity for me. That said the PM (the layer between me and the child) leaves on 18th December so I report straight into the child.

I fail to see how this ends without me ending up in a rubber room unless I bail. The stakeholder management and people skills required are out of reach for me at the moment.

Remember the contractor mantra:
