Random question, anyone here ever work with SAP?
I never have, but they're making me a superuser soon with a very liberal amount of tweaking power. Nothing like being given the tools to completely destroy your company's financial records in seconds.
Yes, there's a real reason behind it, but let this be a warning to everyone, especially in technical fields: it's not always good to show your boss how much you know about things beyond your job description. Sometimes you wind up getting handing jobs that have nothing to do with you. I spent all day (and an hour and half extra) in a meeting deciding how we're moving forward with a new SAP arrangement and basically getting a crash course in AR, AP, GL, P&L, balance sheets, and all kinds of fun accounting/financial reporting things.
I really don't mind, as I get paid either way and it's good stuff to know, but it just struck me as rather odd that I got assigned to this project. That's what I get for basically being the go-to guy for our current SQL software.
Oh, and because you guys love cooking so much, the next project is gonna be slow-cooked beef brisket. Details to follow.
