Tracking Time

Rick Webb

Chapter 26 in Agency, 2015, pp 255-256 from Palgrave Macmillan

Abstract: Abstract Time sheets are a joke. They are an outright lie. They are, first and foremost, a massive fraud, contentedly perpetrated and affirmed by all parties in the ecosystem—the employer, the client, and the employees. Finance knows it. Your client knows it. Your client’s finance department knows it. Your boss knows it. His boss knows it. Everyone knows it, but no one cares. There is zero accountability or incentive to discover the truth. Time sheets are supposed to perform one job—to accurately track time—and they don’t accomplish this. People lie. People forget.
