Any one use JIRA?

Hi All, Any one use JIRA, it seems to me a good way of noting issues which can the do the digital equlivent of slip down the sofa...There seems to be a way of ignoring things, then claiming they were not on JIRA. And when they are checked against my name they do not appear, however I can remember being late to lunch on a Friday as I was typing them up. Hmm Don't trust it...

Have you tried tweaking your search parameters? Like "WAS assigned to" or "created by".

Hmm, have to give that a go, I am a JIRA novice. But I keep hearing people complaining...

Yes, adds up to the taste. Oh wait, I thought you are talking of jeera.

Everything is ok as long as they are complaining. You are in trouble when they become apathetic and don't care what happens anymore.

If you're having trouble finding an issue on jira that you're sure you saw recently, you can also get a list of your recently viewed issues:

issuekey in issueHistory() ORDER BY lastViewed DESC

Until last Friday, yes, I had to use JIRA... this week vacation, next week, now job. But... aside from that, I think JIRA can be a good tool to note 'to do' items, but, like all such tools, if there is too much 'clutter', it can be hard to find the needed item. What is the search criteria? Keywords? Assigned to? Etc... In the project I was on, there were SO many tasks, it was hard to find what was important.
