h2g2 The Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy: Earth Edition

Well today was the roll out of a new data capture system at work.

FC would be very glad she didn't get me giving an earful about our trainer who remembered I needed the training with barely enough time in the day to do it. And then me not liking the style of the presentation as it was a monotonous pre-recorded over dub of screens with no, well little, interaction. She would have agreed two and a half hours of that is not the best way for me even though only midly dyslexic would have been able to learn. And to say I was drained last night is to put it mildly.

Well today experienced my third change of system working here and this is definitely the most non data taker friendly of the bunch. All the automated updates we fought for in the last two systems have been replaced. It is far to complex to do anything with any great alacrity or ease of function. Some screens are so congested it is unreal.

I dunno why businesses keep changing things. Just annoys all the workers, although I suppose it gives the trainers something to do.
