So damn close

  Getting very close to pushing out a new major release of software at work at the moment, not to mention the cheaper smaller version of our hardware (if you consider $2000 to $5000 cheap that is). This means lots of last minute bug fixing, people trying things they really shouldn't and giving everyone a heart attack as they think something fundamental is broken. All the usual fun. The most frustrating part is the amount of work it takes just to get through all the misinformation (not usually deliberate), misunderstanding (stupid people normally) and out of date ideas. If people just did what they were meant to we could get through this in time and I could get out of here on time to take my wife to her new endocrinologist today and our weekend away tomorrow. These are way more important than dealing with idiots.
