    Time management…..

    Agreed with offshore colleague that I would catch up with him over his poor reporting and vague delivery dates at 9:30, which he agreed to.

    The usual gathering of 4 people around the PC screen looking at my email.

    9:30 comes along, the only window in a busy day, as he gets up from his desk, and walks past me.

    I remind him about the 9:30, says he is on his way to a stand-up meeting.

    I am starting to feel like giving up!! How can any individual / firm tolerate such abysmal mis-management of time??

                He changed the word indian to offshore.

                Although since it's all makebelieve anyway it doesn't really matter.

                    Joking aren't ya. Morrisons head office imported 400 Bob's last year to code their new payroll system. It's cheaper y'see.
