A Client Requests Time Traveling?

August13

This is new and interesting. Just when I thought clients have reached the limit of requests when it comes to changes in their software they blew me away on this. I received an email from a manager at this client office that was asked by one of his big clients to recompile a year to date report of their repair jobs.

The funny part is that this same manager has updated financial figures in the database, and changed a savings calculation for his client 3 times total this year. His request was to somehow use old information for the old date ranges. Requests like this make me laugh, and think really silly stuff. I even mentioned in the email about scientists can’t even figure out how to trace back movement of energy to make time traveling to the past possible. :)

Someone has to tell these administrative people how it is, and maybe I’m the guy to do it! I’m in a joking mood, so don’t take that comment seriously.
