Word. Is there something specific you have in mind, or is this just more of a generic rant?

My father is the king of "this how I've always done it." It even pertained to how the dishwasher should have been loaded. Once I put the glasses on the bottom and the dishes on the top just to blow his mind. He freaked out at me, LOL.

That's funny you bring that up. My fiancee CRINGES when I just LOAD the dishwasher. She might as well just hand wash the dishes because she does that before she puts them in. I dump the crap out, put them in the washer, otherwise that defeats the purpose.

It's her MOM who got her started on that, and she always is like, "That's GROSS." and I'm like, "Shut your mouth and finish that pie."

Don't hurt me honey.

The data model for the current project I'm working on is way out of date. It was created by some offshore Indian contractor back in 1999 and the quality is just piss poor. I suggested we do it right and fix our data model before implementing new features. All manager and the other senior developer want to do is patch the data model for now and revisit it later. meanwhile I am the sucker left with the daunting task of patching and hacking this data model. This is really the kind of thing that makes you want to resign your position.
