You don't sleep. That must be it.

>I was thrown into a complicated situation with a privatized state agency that needed an enterprise system from the ground up. All we had to work with were ASCII files of DB2 tables and screen prints from an ancient mainframe system. Got this info on April 15. Had the entire application in VFP5 with over 25 data entry forms, lookups galore, reports, a new framework (client needed babying), et al installed by July 1. Have had only 3 calls for tech support and in each case was a goofy typo in a less-commonly used routine.
