A Project Without a Future

摘要

A few years back, my associate paul and I were working as network engineers for a large transportation company when we were assigned to a project supporting a major new intercontinental communications application. Grady and Dennis were the project managers. The project got off to a slow start — and ground even slower as we found ourselves setting objectives that should have been finalized before the project ever saw approval. Paul and I moved for- ward as best we could: creating network plans, preparing equipment lists, and contacting vendors to enable the new application.
