Whether it’s one of your classic favorites — or even if it’s not on your top 20 list — it’s nearly impossible to experience the holiday season without hearing “The 12 Days of Christmas” many (many) times.
However, sometimes life isn’t full of wonder, joy and partridges in pear trees — like when project managers are forced to use outdated, tedious or just plain dysfunctional project management software. Here’s what that unhappiness sounds like:
THE 12 DAYS OF PROJECT MISERY (sung to the tune of “the 12 days of Christmas”):
In the 12 days of misery
my outdated project management software gave to me:
a big batch of dreaded spreadsheets,
two thousand emails,
three pointless status meetings,
four screaming stakeholders,
fiiiiiiiive conflicting updates!
Six checked-out team members,
seven overdue timesheets,
eight outdated reports,
nine missing documents,
ten needless notifications,
eleven misallocated resources,
and:
twelve reasons to quit and join the circus.
