Some strangeness with project planning going on here at work. I've got a task I need to do. It was originally planned to start in October. It got moved in though so we could finish the project sooner. I started work on it this month and it is due to be finished later this week. However the planned date of finishing it is now some time in September. Confused yet? Yeah me too. When you look at the overall plan it shows up as late, negative 66 days late. WTF? So I am so early with this that I am late?
We employ a guy full time to deal with this stuff (since our project altogether involve about 500 to a 1000 different tasks) so that all of the various people and their progress can be tracked so we get a rough idea when we will be done. If this is how we plan though god help us.
