But, I'm guessing you have the same thing of doing the work or the time sheet. My attitude is do the job then fill in the time sheet, stuff gets done. If I go for the time sheet first it takes me an age to get the Project Mangler to authorise me...

9:00 - 10:00 Tried to make sense from time-sheet
10:00 - 11:00 Discussed flawed time-sheet with manager
11:00 - 12:30 Presented decent, workable alternatives
13:00 - 14:00 Started work on time-sheet 2.

This is the only thing I'm happy about bringing this magical "Agile" process at work.
Now we got rid of this time-sheet thing. But fake-agile process sucks, equally. You just need to do the right thing that fits in your teams dynamics.

it's very agile where I work, but we still have to fill out a time sheet so the bean counters know how much to bill our various customers. (And for T&M contracts they want a daily 'what did you do?' sentence so that if asked we don't have to try and reconstruct what we did a month ago from git logs, etc.)
Did you ever see history portrayed as an old man with a wise brow and pulseless heart, weighing all things in the balance of reason?
Is not rather the genius of history like an eternal, imploring maiden, full of fire, with a burning heart and flaming soul, humanly warm and humanly beautiful?

The War on Drugs - Under The Pressure[^]
So I was watching the new season of Bojack Horseman last week, awesome show, and then this track came on (last episode, last minute or so).
It sounded good right away, so I pulled out my Shazam and it revealed its secrets.
I never heard of the band and I don't really like their other songs, but this one is just great.
It reminds me of... I don't know, 80's or 90's rock songs?
For some reason I just HAD to listen to The Cult after listening to this one.
Anyway, it's been pretty much on repeat this week, so it's the well deserved SOTW

You seem to like catchy music

I'm actually not into that new wave 80's sound 
I never really liked The Cult either (although they're not bad either), except for She Sells Sanctuary[^], which I consider one of the best songs ever
And punk is probably my least favorite music genre.

So Queensryche's Silent Lucidity[^] is not on your lists?
For the most part, I agree with your assessment of punk. That album is not punk, though. I tried listening to other Damned music, and couldn't stand it.

Oh yes Queensrÿche is on my lists, my blacklist that is.
I guess my second least favorite genre is rock ballads followed by hard rock (which, surprisingly, is never really hard).
Maybe it's a tie with punk.
Maybe I even like punk more...

So sad for you! You will miss the greatness of songs like Iron Maiden's Can I Play With Madness, and others of that nature!
I agree with a portion of your statement, though, because most other Queensryche songs don't do anything for me. But some punk songs, that are done in fun, like "Pablo Picasso", from the Repo Man soundtrack, are great in their own way! (And some Iggy Pop songs are catchy.)
But you are wrong on one count: Gangster rap is far worse than punk!  It isn't even music.

Oh hell no! Now you're confusing hard rock with heavy metal (NWOBHM actually) and that's just wrong!
No way you can compare Iron Maiden to Queensrÿche!
I love Can I Play With Madness and other Iron Maiden songs (6!66! The number of the beaaaast! Run to the hiiiiiillllls!).

That's totally the Peter Gunn Theme[^] (I actually know this one from The Art Of Noise[^])

They sure are (Trainspotting soundtrack)!

The Queensryche song I originally linked to is not hard rock, which is why I made the comparison I did, to make a point.

Yess!!!!!
Sander Rossel wrote: Let's agree to disagree
You linked to more of a pop-rap song, rather than gangster rap, in my opinion. What I've heard is worse than this, which is all I'm going to subject myself to for a quick search: Mafia Rap Mix 2018 - Gangster Rap & Hip Hop Mix - Bass Boosted - YouTube. Around where I live you often hear cars drive by booming crap bass with hateful lyrics about their 'b*tch*s' and 'n*gg*s', and killing cops, etc... That is gangster rap

Yes. You can quickly get a small portion delivered with a bus cycle. If you have a larger group, better take the bidirectional data bus.
