    Hope things pick up, but you suck at it says who?
    A positive attitude may not solve all your problems, but it will annoy enough people to make it worth the effort

    Me GG.

    I couldn't drive a consensus if it had a steering wheel and the loss of management clout from our team now means that it will be the same tired battlers who strive to gather this data month in, month out will now be the same ones who have to transform how it's gathered and what we do with it.

    I'm not going to go into a big self-pitying moan, but I just don't have the energy for it :o

    *Edit: To add insult to injury, my library reservation for 'Who Moved my Cheese?' just arrived :rotfl:

    Management Information. I.e. all those daft business metrics that managers get all het up about, but do nothing with.

    Well, if you're so useless you're probably useless at assessing how useless you are so you're probably quite good as a minimum :rotfl:. Seriously - do you do your best? That's it, end of. Bet none of the bosses are sitting right now worrying about it.

    Who Moved My Cheese is great :D.
