If you do that one more time... wait you don't 
if(this.signature != "")
{
MessageBox.Show("This is my signature: " + Environment.NewLine + signature);
}
else
{
MessageBox.Show("404-Signature not found");
}

Today i realized, again, that sometimes I should keep my ideas for myself.
As some may still know, I am currently developing (solo) a Project-Management-Tool that is perfectly set for the company i work at. There is a lot to do and I came up with some pretty cool ideas but now after looking back those 1,5 years of programming and headaches for implementation i faced a new fear. After the first "prototype presentation" to project leaders the workload did more than double itself. Well now it's not only projectmanagement but also a complete workspace for everyone with integrated messenger and notification system. Displaying all Vacation, Meetings, Tasks in a fully customizable Shedule and a lot of additional stuff that is a huge load to break your brain. I estimated another 2 man-years to come up those changes, that's not even overestimated, i think it's to low if they come up with anything new.
Mondays are bad 
Anyone has some advice how to pull the brakes if superfancyweneedthaturgentZ ideas come up again?

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.

You are lost...
After 1.5 years of work they used to get a certain level/speed of work from you...
At your next work start by doubling the time you need to done things, and left obvious errors i the application. Also do certain things in completely different from the original request and explain it with misunderstanding the definitions...
That will save you a lot of trouble...

Put it up on git and then /anyone/ add to it. That way you're not the only one getting the ritual thwacks when something goes fubar.

Put a price label on each requested feature.
|
|
|

On a more serious note than my previous reply: Wouldn't it make sense to put a version into production that covers the requirements as per pre-today and then iteratively add the newly requested features?

That's basically what i tried to do these last 1,5 years. Problem is, that crucial and really needed functions did suffer under a "You do that now or we don#t see any progress" mentality sometimes. Therefore i can't release a "working" version that would cope with demands on project management. Backgroundworks and Databasestuff were tasks i had to do but no one did recognize it, therefore no "progress".
A lot of +++ work is delayed by me so i can aim for a pre-production version by end of the year but yeah, it's still a lot to got :/

Such "Tools" are often ending in a horrible mess. Take a look at Lotus Notes - it can it all...

So, basically you're recreating Outlook and Lync...
How much are those two to implement compared to how much you get paid in the next two years? Chances are really really good that YOU are the more expensive option.

Not 100% correct, the system i am developing is not available on the market as it is espacially designed for Automotive SPICE Projects and + for common project management. The additional features that are requested do not fit in any software that exists (AFAIK).
It's a complex structure that combines Projectmanagement with Projectflows controlled by tasks but measured by "Workproducts" with integrated Riskmanagement and Resourcemanagement + Projecttimes.
Also a Link to a DMS is required to control the "Workproducts" on a Versionbased Level.
If you know a Software that can handle such things let me know!
if(this.signature != "")
{
MessageBox.Show("This is my signature: " + Environment.NewLine + signature);
}
else
{
MessageBox.Show("404-Signature not found");

Indeed, and 1.5 man years sounds like quite an underestimation to me. Demand a feature freeze, so that you can concentrate on the core functionality.
