Really shitty enterprise software in the Justice/Court System domain. Basically a lot of "systems integration" instead of programming. For the foreseeable future, I'm writing exchanges for brokerages (e.g., make the police department and the court's systems talk to each other).
It's not programming. I end up writing 300 lines of code and 10,000 lines of XSLT, and spend hours futzing with XML configurations. I'd leave, but I've already switched jobs twice this year (made a huge upgrade in jobs, but they started missing payroll and I moved to the place I'm at now). Won't have a choice, if I get fired. |

That was the meet from hell, I've never been to one so hot! It's a 24-lane pool how on earth can it be so hot in such a large space in the middle of winter? And it was crappily organized and the results weren't given properly. NEVER AGAIN, I don't care if the alternative is a half hour drive.

Boyfriend has to work from 6 am to....whenever today.
His asshole boss tried to take more money from his paycheck yesteday (if he even pays them on time). B/F is an autotech at a small shop. There is only his boss (an auto tech), my B/F, and the manager(who knows minimal about cars). B/F is the only one working this week cuz his boss is taking off to take care of his daughter (he does this ALL the time). B/F has a tons of cars he alone has to have done by Friday, which is stressful enough. He got done putting back together a transmission, only to discover there is a new clicking noise now. So he has to rework it, but didn't have time to yesterday trying to finish other cars. No one thinks to inform him the car is promised for this morning (it should be written on his ticket but its not). The boss calls yesterday and tell the manager to take the car to a neighboring shop and have them fix it, then bill B/F for the price. WTF? You don't even give him a chance to fix it, call up and tell the other worker there to take the car somewhere else, and plan on charging it to your employee without their consent? I wouldn't think that is even remotely legal. Fortunately the manager isn't a dick, and told B/F what was going on so he could stop it. Then again if the manager (who wrote the ticket on the car) had told him the deadline in the first place...it might not have ever been an issue. Anyway, that is why B/F went into work at 6am, to try to get this stupid car done, no one told him had to be done this am.

shit doesn't even sound legal. He should let them bill him and then sue the shit out of them.

Yeah, it's definitely illegal. (I'm not a lawyer. I base all of my legal knowledge on what people say on Hacker News.)
