I think he's a bit OCD
Jun. 4th, 2015 05:01 pmCoworker - the one who changed the format on me so it would be 'better' (hint: it wasn't) has done it again.
This time, all I needed was a file put in Location 1 so it could be picked up and processed over to Destination 2. It was a test that I needed to do via him rather than the way I usually do it to make sure that the way I usually do it wasn't screwing things up.
I have spent 3.5 hours going back and forth while he fussed over where the file should be going for when we do the move to production and making sure that I had it defined correctly according to the spec (which is screwed up - they changed the format on us two weeks into development).
Locations are the LAST THING I worry about when I'm setting these things up. Because changing the location is as simple as changing an URL. I don't care if the file starts off in /fuckyou/this/filelocation/wont/exist/inamonth/ - just as long as I know where it is so the process can pick it up correctly!
So I spent much of those 3.5 hours fabric shopping for dress fabric, reading a dress pattern, and making a muslin of a dress I'll hopefully be wearing to a Melbourne 'speakeasy' in a week.
But good HEAVENS, man. All I wanted was to test the mapping!
Next time I'm just going to tell him to put the file where I specify, I'll deal with temporary/permanent locations later.
*sigh*
