I apologize to Jamie and the list for being upset
last night.
No problem at all. Gave me a chance to joke around a little.
My point I am trying to make is that our lives and efforts are being tracked and compiled enough. Unless requested- could we leave meteorite collecting and selling alone and just enjoy it?
I think I agree. As I mentioned before, I'll definitely drop names/ID's from any future work. I asked; many spoke; and some really didn't want ID's. The interesting stuff doesn't have anything to do with individuals anyway.
I'm probably from the old school. I've been in engineering for 30 years now and our efforts have become Ghant charts, Pareto charts,statistical analysis, action registers, flow charts, decision charts, goal charts, W/W/W charts.....it never ends. And every new manager they hire fresh out of college has "new and improved" data tracking methods that are to impress upper management and in reality overwhelm people with data and keep us from getting the real work completed.
I know what you mean. I've actually seen extensive, colorful, detailed, expensive analysis with the following disclaimer: "Not for decision-making purposes". I fell out of my chair when I saw that.
So my vote is to leave this area alone. Lets come home to something we enjoy rather something being tracked and analyzed.
Roger.
I won't tie up the list with (much) more on this topic.
