Things I'm looking forward to on this project (in decreasing order of excitement) :
- Brian finally clearing off
- The slow death of this thread
- The cred
Oh, and just for the record, again - there is, and always has been, a schedule.
Of course there was a schedule! Can you imagine trying to manage a building project with no schedule... The conversations with the suppliers would be hillarious.
PL: Can you handle this for us?
Supplier: Sure, when would you like it to be completed by?
PL: well, whenever really, not fussed.
Supplier: We need a schedule to quote you and plan our own timetable...
PL: Nah, just get round to it whenever you feel like.
Supplier: ?!?!
It just doesn’t work like that, projects like this involve hundreds of different teams of people, those suppliers absolutely need a schedule. Covid has undoubtedly forced changes, but anybody mistaking that as proof there was never a schedule is a fool.
