Mine is Government time sheets.
They keep changing them. They are in excel. They must be completed by hand daily.
Your handwritten and signed copy gets turned in at the end of the month, and you need to turn in an electronic one as well.
we have to submit a paper with our customer emails completed and phone calls completed each day. Then we put them on our bosses desk. He doesn’t look at them and then throws them out at the end of the month.
The FR2416 and FR2900 reports from the Federal Reserve bank
86’s ,(State Gov timesheets) that track what i do daily to 15 min intervals (by hand)
it blows
ACT reports… lol.
they are basically customer/lead/contact information for records and follow-up. we have another program too but i forgot what it was. personally, i would us MS Access, but training everybody in it would be a nightmare
and i swear to god, the guy really pushing it played it out just like lomburgh… we played the video all the time when it came up
i have a KPI report
Safety Observation System.
We’re supposed to fill out two per day when we’re working on site. Observe someone doing something unsafe, or a tripping hazard, or pull a, say, welder aside and talk about safety. The idea is that it’s a piece of paper to remind us to be safe, but we already have that. It’s called an HWP.
I’m peacefully protesting. You’re supposed to do two per day and your boss/project manager is supposed to collect them. I have never once filled one out and nobody has ever asked for them.
Do you guys put 15 minute blocks on the timesheets, “Filled out this stupid timesheet?”
I don’t have one.

I wish I could find the Dilbert from last week about time sheets.
Code:38 or something was suicide, and 39 was successful suicide.
sending in a trouble ticket when a file disappears/backup fails/etc :picard:
just got a “new” one today…
We used to fill out a paper form by hand and throw it on a secretary’s desk if we took a day off during the pay period. NOW, we get to use a TELNET system developed in the 70’s, in addition to the old paper system. This is to “streamline” the vacation tracking process.
Expense Reports. I don’t mind doing it though since its tax free money back into my pocket.
We have a cover sheet that we’re supposed to write time in/time out for each customer and what we did there. If we don’t fill it out or lose it, they blow a gasket. Once it’s handed in, no one ever looks at it, as our dispatch puts it into the system when we close jobs out. Just more useless paperwork.
daily excel spread sheet of the previous day’s sales totals.
We use Clarity’s timsheet functionality. I hate it.
Serious? Damn…
10:45am - 11:00am Take dump 
Haha, we are supposed to but they have accounting handle it for us and we only have to put how many days per week we worked.
Originally. I think we had probably one full week of training for it before they got the union involved. Then after that they made accounting tak care of it.
