    Either that, or you'll end up supporting an ancient legacy system that the business depends on.

  • Absurdity of the Day
    C Chris Quinn

    I once worked on a system written for the UK Prison Service that allowed prisoner relatives to claim assistance towards the costs of prison visits. This usually involved a spouse/partner and at least one child. To begin a claim, the first screen was entitled "Enter the Claimant". You could the choose to "enter a child". One of the system users refused to go anywhere near it as they considered that it was encouraging paedophilia! We were asked to change the system to read "Enter Child Details"

  • Thank You Political Correctness
    C Chris Quinn

    In the UK the only BrownBomber I am aware of is the high strength laxative capsule they tend to give you in hospital if you answer the question "Have your bowels moved today?" in the negative. It's a dark brown capsule, about an inch long, and it certainly opens the bomb bay doors!

  • I was sent this, and...
    C Chris Quinn

    Many years ago, before the advent of IDEs, I was working on a DOS based system that used a 3GL called Dataflex and had obtained a text editor called MultiEdit, which was a huge improvement over coding using Notepad. One of my colleagues, who from time to time had to use the UNIX version of the 3GL, saw this and was mightily impressed. "It would be great to be able to use the same editor for DOS and UNIX development - can you get MultiEdit for UNIX?" "No" I replied, "but I can get you vi for DOS!" He used foul language to me at that point and walked away.

  • Oh Goody, the new office layout...
    C Chris Quinn

    I got a window seat after 5 years in the company, but due to the layout of the building I have to have the blinds closed for 50% of my working day if it's sunny, otherwise I'm blinded by glare.

  • What's the worst car you ever owned?
    C Chris Quinn

    A Daewoo Lanos that was given to me by my father-in-law when my Ford Focus finally died (it did have 200,000 miles on the clock). Horrible build quality, abysmal performance and lack of comfort. It was written off by my insurance company after I had a little bump - the repairs would have cost more than £500, which is what they valued the car as.
