A few months ago, it was decreed that my workplace needs to review the shared network folders and create a systematic file-naming system. I was on leave when this was decided, but one of my colleagues volunteered me for the working group. Guess which one! 'I thought it sounded like something you'd enjoy,' she told me. (She was wrong.) Anyway, we have created new primary network folders, and have just finished debating the secondary folders to go in them, and now we have to come up with an official file-naming policy. Thrilling times.
I spent this afternoon reading documents about best-practice file-naming. The first one I read was insistent that underscores should be used to make file names easier to read. The second one was equally insistent that underscores should never be used. The first one said that file names should contain all pertinent information. The second one said that they should be as short as possible. The first one said abbreviations should be used wherever practical. The second one... I think you get the picture. This is going to be fun.
The local theatre sent me its annual program last week, so I could book four or more productions in advance. Despite the program listing shows all through the year, the four I want are in a six week block from July to September. So that's my winter entertainment sorted out. I am going to see something called I Heart Bunnings (Bunnings being a hardware chain). I am so highbrow.
