In The Netherlands we had the joke that KLM (Royal Dutch Airlines, translates as Koninklijke Luchtvaart Maatschappij) flew away

Programming languages are so much easier to work with.

I'd better not point out that the "Lucht" in "Luchtvaart" means air (as in the gas), and that the "v" is pronounced like an "f", then.
I suppose that if a propulsion system works...

If something has a solution... Why do we have to worry about?. If it has no solution... For what reason do we have to worry about?

Two best friends graduated from medical school at the same time and decided that in spite of two different specialties, they would open a practice together to share office space and personnel.
Dr. Smith was the Psychiatrist and Dr. Jones was the Proctologist.
They put up a sign reading: Dr. Smith and Dr. Jones: Hysterias and Posteriors.
The town council was livid and insisted they change it.
The doctors changed it to read: Schizoids and Hemorrhoids.
This was also not acceptable, so they changed the sign to read:
Catatonics and High Colonics..
Again.... no go....
Next they tried: Manic Depressives and Anal Retentives..
Thumbs down again.
Then came, Minds and Behinds...
Still not good....
Another attempt resulted in Lost Souls and Butt Holes....
unacceptable again....
So they tried: Nuts and Butts -
no way....
Freaks and Cheeks -
still no good
Loons and Moons -
forget it
Almost at their wit's end, the Docs finally came up with....
Dr. Smith & Dr. Jones
Specializing in Odds and Ends....
Everybody loved it....

I've long wanted to open an auto parts store next door to a music shop, just so I could put up a sign that reads, "Wright's Organs and Body Parts."
Will Rogers never met me.

Received a call last night from a manager who was having problems with a vendor system. She wanted to know if we ran nightly backups because she was interested in testing a couple of things in the next morning. The theory was that once the testing was completed I could revert the database and they'd be all set.
I assured her it would be no problem.
Out of the 20 databases that backed up last night guess which backup failed?

Ask her why she worked on the "Backup" version instead of the "Live", then blame her for the "Live" now being corrupted as well.
Then restore the previous days version and get her to fix the updates.
Do I have to think of everything?

From the MSN News article on that guy rescued after being at sea for 66 days:
"I waved my hands real slowly, and that's the signal 'I'm in distress help me,'" he told WAVY.
Really. The TV station that interviewed him has the call sign WAVY????

Maybe that's because back in the analog days, it might've been the best way to describe the picture they were broadcasting...?

Regular readers may recall a recent post of mine entitled
"I quit!"
Well, after much deliberation (MUCH deliberation) a great deal of stress, some negotiation and copious quantities of booze - I've changed my mind!
So I am remaining at my current employer - as Software Development Manager (my previous job title was "developer").
My job is now to stop our software being sh*t! improve our processes and procedures and ensure the production of quality, tested software.
Wish me luck!

Have you got Management Support?
(Or have you got the promise of management support provided you don't change anything?)

Thanks!
I have support from the top. Whether I have support from the middle remains to be seen.
it is commonly acknowledged that we must change something, as what we have produced over the last three or four years performs poorly, is inconsistent, poorly tested. ill documented, and hard to maintain, and, frankly, works less well than the MS Access product it replaces!
It's time to restore some pride in our work
