"The department" would be a good name.

MessageBox.Show("This is my signature: " + Environment.NewLine + signature);
}
else
{
MessageBox.Show("404-Signature not found");

How about "Potpourri"??

"Five-Pound Bag" I'll let you make the connection...

CoE, Center of Excellence. Your department seems to excel on every front.

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. --Winston Churchill

Insane Asylum? :laugh:

Probably will be, a "department" like that becomes a handy dumping ground for anyone that doesn't fit or work well anywhere else. What is the department's goals? What is it's driver - either one discipline becomes dominant or more likely none and remains rudderless, it's not going to suit anyone, no way to measure performance (excuse for lower bonuses), daily fights over what matters. Dumping ground, exit waiting room, only real achievement will be staff reduction by attrition.

Run.

The last company I worked for was making the transition to centers of excellence as I was leaving. I hear that it isn't working as well as they expected.

Don't worry - soon you'll roll over, fall out of bed, and realize (whilst gratefully rubbing bruised limbs) that it was only a nightmare.

The About-to-Fail department because that's what happens when you put non-techies in charge of IT. Every time.

[dandy72]

I'm not sure which is more optimistic between your suggestion, and the one I was about to make ("doomed to fail")

[Mark_Wallace]

I'd go for "The F%$#ed-up by the Inclusion of Marketing Morons" team. Time will tell the tale, as more and more of you are replaced by marketing morons, as the extant marketing morons talk themselves into ruling the roost. Learn quickly how to get your points of view across to managers, etc, or you'll be trampled on. "Getting profitable work done" now has to take fifth place, after five levels of office politics.
