this is a joke... right?
I agree. I like to avoid being an early adopter for anything business or work related because it is so much easier to use things when there is an already established user community who has found and fixed/worked around…
He probably got fed that idea day in and day out while there. I have worked for a few different large organizations and have often faced the size excuse for being unorganized and ineffective. I personally feel it is a…
