you can transfer a call ?
Yup I hate phones too and practice myself in getting to know absolutely nothing about them. I went as far as press 0 for an outside line... (or 9, sometimes it´s 9, right?)
|
|
|
|
|
I have a check list to do so!
1. Calm down
2. Hit the 'Transfer call' button
3. Calm down
4. Enter number
5. Calm down
6. Put down the phone
7. Calm down

I thought I was the only one. I mean I'm a software engineer but I hate the phone, any phone, mobile phones included, especially smart phone. I'm forced to carry a beeper. I never figure out how to use my desk phone until may be a year or so into any new position.

I'm too busy having a life to actually hate a piece of software. Although, if I were to say something off the top of my head I'd imagine most things you can find on CNET are a pile of dung.

If you have an important point to make, don't try to be subtle or clever. Use a pile driver. Hit the point once. Then come back and hit it again. Then hit it a third time - a tremendous whack.

1) PDF - It is just such a terrible mess internally
2) Regex - this hurts my poor tiny brain

1. SharePoint
2. SharePoint
3. I almost forgot - SharePoint.

|

You forgot another one that I hate :
Sharepoint
I must stay any of my hate are insignificant compared to a ruined life after knowing this one.
|

Can I modify that to "Everything about SharePoint except its search functions"?
SharePoint search really is a blinder.
SharePoint itself makes you want to claw your eyes out.

You're like me with Oracle. I used to have to program in that mess. I told a headhunter not to send me to any jobs that required Oracle programming. Where did he send me? To a place they sacrificed a goat every morning to the God Oracle.
I called him up and said, "They do Oracle here, I told you I don't like Oracle. They want me to program Oracle here. Did I mention I don't like Oracle? Nothing but Oracle programming here. Did I mention they use Oracle here? (this goes on for at least five minutes)"
His response, "They do Unix as well."
"Only long enough to start Oracle!"

Could you explain? Do you hate SP from a developer's perspective or a user's perspective? I'm really interested.

The internet.. well, not hate, but I do wonder if it's all it was cracked up to be. These days it seems to be used too much by bad guys (the minority, I hope) trying to scam us or cause problems for us, whether the end result is on the web or in real life.
There's a lot of negativity generally on the web and that too seems to be flooding into real life far too much. I think many people would be a lot happier if they stopped using the internet (me for sure although I have to for my work).

It's a little silly to hate a technology. They're just tools - pick the one that suits the task or your mood and crack on; ignore the one you 'dislike'.
I've often found that when people hate a technology it's because they don't get it or they're so deeply into an opposing technology that they don't want to get it.

This. Exactly. Especially for programming languages.
