OMGWTF***?!!!!
The Powers That Be have decided that is is necessary to write out things that had heretofore only been summarized. In a 200-plus page document that has already been reviewed and vetted by a massive number of individuals, groups, and organizations. This will take days, add ~50 pages to the thing, f*ck up the numbering in the whole document, and piss off people all over the state. So excited about my job today, can you tell?
Also, outlines apparently no longer work the way they used to. No longer is 1.0 the broader standard that encompasses 1.1, 1.2, and 1.3! No, 1.0 is now just an "introductory statement," - unless it is not followed by any details, in which case it is a standard. This is the logical wonder that caused me to say to someone in the conference call I just got off, "That is the most counterintuitive thing I have heard all day." Luckily, the other people on the conference call thought it was funny - I don't really have social filters; they're more like social colanders, and stuff slips through.
As my old boss used to say, "The fun is relentless."
In better news, what is not to love about Hamlet, the text adventure?
