Nonpersons

A recent project has enabled a centralized org chart to be available internally. This new achievement was forwarded to all with much fanfare.

Naturally, I - the obedient minion - clicked on the link to find myself in the chart.

And just as naturally, I did not find myself anywhere in the chart. Nor were any of my fellow contractors. This is to be expected.

But the post-message snark was especially nice.

Contractor 1 (to entire team): As I commented in the blog post, you’ll find a noticeably incomplete org chart when you drill down to [our] team. Several people are missing. In its present form, I wouldn’t recommend including it.

Contractor 2 (to all contractors): Several people are missing? It looks to me like it’s just not showing the contractors. All the people seem to be accounted for.

Nice.
