Hiatus

The Corporate Whore blog is currently on hiatus.
80+ hour weeks are not common, but not unheard of; when they arrive, you begin to curse pretty much everything.

Updates scheduled for 2nd or 3rd week in April.

3 - Wouldn't 80 hour weeks be 200% utilization?

If you want me to send you a tin of Skoal mint it works wonders in situations like these and has the advantage of being legal.

4 - Kudos to John Madera. I certainly have a few colleagues who would idolise his utilisation.

Consultant Ninja, it's less a case of my/our inefficiency and more a case of a weak engagement manager who bows to unreasonable and constantly changing client demands at 30 minutes past the 11th hour. Evolving client demands that require complex models that need to be validated after seismic shifts in assumptions are never fun to work on. (Comment this)
