So I suggested to my boss a slight change that would speed up the process of something we do hundreds a time a shift across our entire team.
Now, this small change adding static information (basically a help pop up we already use but adding a second so we didn’t have to pull it up in another tab) would save an hour a week, every week.
It’s not even dynamic content that changes, just a pop up that is a simple addition of html that even I could write in like 30 seconds.
Nope, they want us going to a tab, looking at the same info then going back and retyping it — hundreds of times a shift instead of of putting that tab info that doesn’t change in a pop up. They couldn’t even grasp how this would be more efficient.
This is not the first time I have encountered this and I usually don’t make suggestions unless it makes my life easier.
Why are corporations so dead set on improving processes?
