Deep breaths
I'm finding it harder and harder to bite my tongue in regards to my
church and the infinite wisdom (which somehow doesn't include anything
about computers) of the communications committee. It seems every
time I turn around they are trying to replace the tool I wrote with
something commercial. What they don't understand is that there's
nothing that tool does that mine doesn't also. It's like there
hell bent on spending several hundred dollars for a few people to be
able to edit some text...they can already to that for free!!!
I've repeatedly asked them to *show* me what they would like to see
added to my tool to make it easier etc..but haven't received one
suggestion. The few suggestions I have received all involve page
layout changes...which I can do...but they think something like
"Contribute" will take care of it all for them...well it doesn't...dumb
bastards. Oh well. I've made my mind up that if they
purchase something like that and put it in play then I'm done with
their site... The part that really chaps my ass is that the ones
who are most vocal don't have a friggin clue on how to even use a
computer. I think I've said it before...a degree in journalism or
working for a newspaper doesn't make you a website designer or website
anything. I don't know. I just need to breathe deeply and
see what happens. I feel better already.
