Don't forget to nap after a good workout.

...and then be ready to stretch again.

This is perfect exercise for a Monday morning / start of the week!  
Stretch your deadlines in the Monday morning meeting also help!

It was a cynical response to high inflation. Blown all out of proportion and did knot end well.

WOW, just came a cross a fantastic offer. Only 11 hours 55 minutes left!!
Offer is at top of this web page for "350+ Web Development books and courses" 25+ JavaScript Shorthand Coding Techniques — SitePoint
When I went to the page, I just happen to hit it right at 12 hours. Oh wow, what timing!
Don't miss out.
Back to real world. Tried doing inspect on it to see what fixed timing logic was in place. Gave up after a minute since quick searching did not revel much and got bored.

Wait what, it's 12 hours for me too!
Must be a time zone coincidence

VB.NET (Option Strict Off, basically meaning everything is an implicit cast), 1-layered architecture (that layer is the WinForm), doesn't build because it's missing CrystalDecisions.CrystalReports...
Do I need to go on?

The language is the least of my worries (having to install Crystal Reports is far more damaging) 
Anyway, a job is a job and this is a nice opportunity to reel in a nice customer later this year (or early next year) and bring them to Azure

"Crystal Reports, with their hard and twisted bodies, their harsh and twisted wills. For a thousand years they have ruled. Yet now, there are only ten: a dying race, ruled by a dying Emperor, imprisoned within themselves in a dying land."

I had one of those a few weeks ago. Cept it was my old project (been here a long time) and it was web based. Since Crystal is on the decline here (only a couple of reports left), it was easier to redo in C# and current CrystalDecisions dll's

What do you use as an alternative to Crystal?
Where I'm from, people work with the Crystal designer because it's relatively easy to use and you don't need programmers to create reports.

I've used their WinForms controls in the past.
Great controls and great support, I might check this out for future work

Sorry for the late reply. I used Crystal. VS doesn't ship with it anymore but you can still download it from SAP Crystal Reports, dev version.[^]. Funny thing is I had to use Chrome to see the 'enter your data' boxes.
But it worked and was pretty quick to create a simple page. We only have a couple of Crystal Reports left and I'm sure those will go away soon.

You already had my complete sympathy at that point.
... and then you mentioned Crystal.
