Rex: Done! Who checks this?
The office goes very quiet.
Rex's first year · Story 3
Who's checking this?
Week three. Rex has finished a first drawing and needs someone to check it.
Rex's diary
Rex's diary, before this story. Week 3. Finished my first drawing! Turns out "the client" isn't the people upstairs. Not sure who checks it, though.
Nobody knows who
Monday
Rex emails it to Alex. Alex reckons Dave checks drawings for site, and forwards it on. Sorted. (It isn't.)
Wednesday
Dave reckons the client checks it. The drawing is now sitting in three inboxes, gathering dust.
A week later
Marcus (client's project manager): Who signed this off?
Nobody did. Awkward.
The reason
Everyone assumed somebody else had said yes. Classic.
The result
Two weeks lost, and a drawing nobody owns.
Nobody checked it.
