Is it standard practice for the programming/engineering staff to say we have
done a s??t-load of modifications to the software. It is now on the server.
Please log on and figure out what the modifications are. We are much too
important and busy to give you a list of the modifications. When you have a
list of modifications, please figure out what they probably do, then submit
updated drafts of the documentation that we never reviewed the last time you
submitted them for review.
What if the programmer is also the owner of the company?
They actually resent my asking for developer specifications, expecting me to
configure the application, run test cases, and deduce from the application's
behavior what functions, features, database fields, etc. actually do.
Asking questions about the application is regarded as wasting their time
with *estupiiid* questions.

Any advice on how to manage the manager?
Any advice on how to *become* a programmer or manager?

Trent,
There is a new version of DCX on the conference room system
which has many of the new fields added to Cliacct and credcard. Please
review and update your IDT related docs.
