threemonkeysAfter many years of the luxury of not having to fill out timesheets, we now have to suffer that pain. It isn't the filling out of the numbers - it is the working out of how to code your time.
When it comes down to it, timesheets make liars of us all. Yes liars. If you spend some time discussing the latest news of the day or, say, the distinctive features of lake Baikal, then how do you code it? Even if you have a code for idle chitchat (which you won't), you will not use it. You will code it as admin or project planning or some such. In other word, you lie. In fact you are encouraged to tell lies.
Corporate morality - *sigh*
