I bitch... therefore I am?
Sep. 14th, 2005 12:41 pmSummat like that, anyway...
Sure, a couple of the post-SSPH projects have engaged in what can only be called AssMillinery but nothing too epic. Unless my brain is doing that protective thing by reassuring me the pain wasn't that bad. Distinct possibility, I realize.
After all, two courses in the SSPH lexicon never got finished. One was put on hold waiting for an as-yet-unpublished change in policy, and the other--already subject to 4 separate rewriting sessions with Subject Matter Experts totalling some 30 hours--required such extensive rework due to a management level game of My Bone that it was shelved indefinitely.
Rrecall, if you will, that the SSPH came into my world in April 2004. I knew I wasn't entirely rid of it, this albatross. But it felt good knowing most of it was behind me. Sure, I was ignorning the annual review cycle and the few niggling "non-essential" edits we ignored to get the material published on time. But most of it was dead and buried.
Until today.
The policy isn't going to change after all. What we had *should* suffice (pending the inevitable round of legal reviews to remind them of what's gone before). But the other course? Ugh. Rendered night unintelligible by SMEs who wouldn't know a Learning Objective if it parked itself up their collective putrid bungholes and rotted, it was.
Seriously. It's making me twitch. And not in a good way.
*headdesk*
