Mega enterprise "de-scoped"!

It was not if but when. We had been trying to grind out a result on Mega Enterprise. The bugs have been burning down far too slowly. QA appear to be going backwards, the rumor is that Franks-Mom has been pulling QA people to work on other projects to make Mega Enterprise look worse.

Henry got the team all together in the board room. He got the design team to pull up each screen one by one and he then shared his knowledge and insights into being successful in this space. Basically he thought it all sucked, he could have done it better himself (if he had the time) and that he can't believe that he has been let down again by his management team (no surprise there). Well at least that's what I heard he said.

He asked the leads to get together with Product Management to come up with a new plan. Can-I-Have-A-Latte-Sir said "I told you so" in his staff meting. He basically told Henry at the start this was a waste of time unless he was leading the effort and when Euro-Fool took over then he was going to make damn sure that it was going to fail.

Henry took Euro-Fool aside after the meeting. They seemed to have a long heart to heart. He looked like he was crying when he left. What a lame ass!
