So I sent the questionnaire out yesterday, along with the request to meet those that recieved it and chat with them. Some people would rather the whole group just talked to me, the others just didn’t seem to care. So in a group it is.

I then spent the rest of the day trying to get e-mail addresses for different companies to send the questionnaire to. You wouldn’t believe how many companies don’t want you to contact them, or at least make it very hard for you to do. What happens if you want to become a new customer but can’t contact them?

Today was spent reading some stuff for about an hour, then meetings until lunch. The afternoon was spent typing stuff up and adding more detail as I went though them. And finally having my laptop stolen off me Apparently there are more needy people then me

One of the meetings was a follow on with my first project plan. Having filled in the sheets from the first meeting I needed some feedback on the finer points and details on filling them in. I think I had the main points, and the rest I could have only known about with experience and from looking at things from a different perspective.

The last 15 minutes was a quick demo of how I could fit the plan I had so far into MS Project. (Yes I know it’s a MS product, but where I work is turning into a MS shop) The hard part for me is working out which bits of Project to use and which not to use. First I have to find them or at least know they exist. Just hope I can produce some thing that is of some use.

Tomorrow I’ll try and send some of those questionnairs to the different companies, but it depends of how much I can be bothered (so no changes there!)
