Okay, firstly, some people got to know about this a little earlier than most. Some got to know about it just because they’re nosy KPCs who happened to have friends who worked in organisations that have been briefed earlier.
So, how should the “most” of us react to our line of work being given the honour of gracing the front page news?
The deadline makes the assumption (yet again) that there are more than 3 productive work days till 1 January 2009. And that large companies with loads of systems and swarms of employees can just flick a switch to comply with the new requirement automatically come the new year.
Thanks for cutting out my work for me next year.
Screw it. I’m still going on leave. See y’all next year.
