#2737 — Mobile Expense S H I T W A R E

FromNomen Nescio <nobody@dizum.com>

SubjectMobile Expense S H I T W A R E
Message-ID<3f25c5add3e59183593b48fcca0bb65c@dizum.com>
My company just switched from some Excel expense reporting software to
this Mobile Expense (www.mobilexpense.com) software which is SHITWARE in
my opinion. It now takes me at least 5 times as long to produce a weekly
expense report. In Excel, you could copy and paste which is something I
do I lot with dates, expense descriptions, etc. You can't copy or paste
a fucking thing using Mobile Expense SHITWARE. I'll never forget the day
my manager sugar-coated and told me I was going to love this product.
Well, let me tell you, I HATE THIS PHUCKING PRODUCT!

This web-based piece of SHIT software product hits the internet with
every single effing entry slowing down one's ability to enter a single
expense. It requires you to select the year and the month followed by
the date for every single effing entry. Editing is a royal pain in the
ass as this too needs to be done line by effing line with hits to the
internet for every effing change you might need to make. This SHITWARE
is not intuitive as every time I use it I have to re-learn what "save"
versus "save and next" means. Next, the program requires one to
breakdown a hotel stay in sub-parts for entry on entirely separate lines
like: 1) one line for cost of hotel room by itself, 2) cost of hotel
state sales tax for that room, and 3) cost of local or county sales tax
for that room. For hotel stays, I'm entering two, three and maybe four
lines for a single overnight hotel stay. This is FUCKING crazy! Using
this SHITWARE is a time-burglar activity. If your company is considering
a switch to this SHIT, make sure you ask your employees what they think
before you management assholes force this crap on your company workers!

Good move guy. Instead of sitting down with your boss or the IT people 
at your company to try to resolve the problem, you vomit obscene spew 
into a public forum. If you worked for me, I'd fire your knucklehead in 
a heartbeat...

The only person who works for you - or ever will - is your paperboy.

-- 
- Since the shootings on Friday, the ultra-defensive [maybe wrongly 
- hyphenated, but that would be fitting] Roy "News" LIEberman has posted 
- at least 90 times, and almost every single post is about his obsessive 
- knee-jerk loonball [wacko] gun politics. How much longer before the 
- authorities [police] finally disable the trip wires and confiscate the 
- arsenal in his St. Louie hovel?

So true.  So true.

Yes, and you do such a good job too-- hardly ever tossing it in the 
flower bed. I'm truly impressed-- the county rehab training agency has 
done wonders with you.
