#functional analyst

Just spent 2 hours essentially fighting my technical analyst in the arena of the Debt Collection Automation project workshops, with my business users as a mostly silent audience and my project manager as a commentator. I feel like a gladiator slave.

And the disaster of the Repricing project that's wrecked me the past couple days is... Cleaned up, but not resolved, and everyone is up in arms not because the root cause of the malfunction hasn't been identified or fixed (that would be too sensible) but over some bullshit with time sheets and our dev going home early yesterday.

I am just...

Man.

You ever read a fanfic and it’s just… too many small and inconsequential events after one another and then suddenly a chunk of real development is summarised in a single descriptive paragraph in order to justify a big character development or plot point, only to then immediately move on to the next set of teeth-grindingly inconsequential events getting a full-page spread?

The granularity is off. It’s like a badly described set of business processes, where the detail of one process is so fine-grained and low-level that the bigger picture of the business is entirely lost, and then the next process is described so abstract and high-level that it becomes entirely disconnected from functional reality, and these different degrees of abstraction are mixed up so you can’t even properly increase or decrease the level of detail over the whole.

Anyway.
