Database Problems

I despise data entry. Why me? Why should I have to waste my time adding subtracting decaying every little micro curie?

When whatshisface hired me, the fired guy had left a stack of paperwork to be entered into the database. Pierre and Silver had done most of it, and had thereby learned database entry… at least for the current database. They taught me, and I did it too, if I had to. Otherwise, no.

Next thing you know, whatshisname decided to get a new database.

“He’s friends with this new guy. Wants to give him the business.” said Silver.

“He just doesn’t like Mr. B” opined Pierre. “There’s nothing wrong with this database.”

Whatever the reason, we got a new database.

“OK, we have a new database.” whatshisface said at the weekly meeting. “Now, start using it.”

The next weekly meeting, whatshisface again said “Hey, have we started using the new database yet?”

This went on for a while until we finally asked for some training.

Eventually, we started using the new database.
