Shout out from Cubeland and a yearn to Automate!
How you know when your boss has the potential to be a PHB. E-mail I got today at Wells.

Who is supposed to be sending the daily Graphs of Delinquency?Body:
I have not seen any in days?
What’s interesting that this same manager had a programmer take a daily screenshot, yes Alt PrtScrn, and e-mail it to some upper managers. The programmer who was responsible for this mundane and archaic task went on vacation, which was approved by the above sender.
Sigh…
P.S. Never send me an e-mail with the body in the subject; it will be marked as spam. Also this is an excellent candidate for some automation (alt PrtScrn thing).
P.S.S. Sorry if I sound cynical, I know I only have 4 more days!
