Got too many meetings today to do that Mr Barman ( 5 in total today ffS) cry:

One of which is a three hour meeting this morning to talk about our crap database - of which I know little to nothing about the technical stuff. How the hell do I get through that without curling up in  a ball in the corner of the room and just confirming I don't give a f**K just fix it. In fact that sounds like a very productive stategy  lol:

Use the "bulls**t baffles brains approach. Throw in a few phrases like:
Best practise
You need to focus
The bottom line is
We need total continuous improvement (describing it as TCI scores extra points)
Let's have a some benchmarks
Think outside the box
This has to be result driven
Push the envelope

You must get in “win-win” at least three times   

(Actually, your "curling up in a ball in the corner of the room and just confirming I don't give a f**K just fix it" approach sounds a lot better)

What kind of database is it?

My friends son wasnt all that impressed Wenchy. Ended up watching one of the Harry Potter films with him while babysitting over the weekend and explaining why I was suddenly cracked up laughing kind of irritated him  redface:
