We converted a new customer's data into our system this past weekend. Today we let them onto the system. Over the course of the day three people in the field worked with the new users. Tonight we fix all the issues they find.
Most of them are data related, some are application changes, and a few are new changes to the application.
I mostly worked on the last two pieces as the field folks worked the data.
All of this kept all of us pounding away at it till late. As in I left the office at 12:10. AM. I came in at 8:30, and we worked through lunch. So that's about a.. 15 1/2 hour day?
That's what it takes to make things happen and get our users actually working instead of waiting around on us.
this was in a room at the Philadelphia Health Federation where i had a training. what a welcome sight! it made me very nostalgic.
The inbox is empty now! Thanks, Kelly!
I have a second box underneath for short-term storage of items relating to small open projects. It's just a placeholder.
Pretty much the same as yesterday, only I get to leave around 10:00 instead of midnight.
Tonight was much easier as the changes are mostly cosmetic. We did identify a major data issue that would have been a headache later, but fixing it now means we'll go forward without issue.
I'm betting tomorrow is going to be just about nothing, so I'll be going home instead of staying at the office.
