Howdy, Kathy.
You made it to Hump Day! Is your brain rattled?
Nice to the sun starting to peek out at last. It’s been a bit dreary up there today.
Dreary and damp all day here.
Yes...brain is rattled. In the middle of our morning meeting, one reported that the main program had kicked her out. Then one by one each of us was kicked out. Payroll is dead in the water without that program.
Then we started hearing from the accounting folks...they were down as well. Then we heard from downtown...same problem. Each of us had already sent screen shots to IT. Don’t know what happened, but IT got it “fixed” within about 30 minutes. So that put us behind.
And HR from downtown, and our own accounting department scheduled mandatory meetings back to back starting at 11a. Michelle pushed back and said NO...we are trying to pay everyone today and you want to take 2 hours out of the middle of our processing. Her response from above was, “you can just use your other screen and do your payroll stuff” while the meeting is going on. She said NO again and said we cannot do payroll properly and be in a meeting. DUH!!! They do this all the time...schedule meetings on payroll day.
It has been quite the day.
