I just don't understand (work)

I don't consider myself a brilliant person, hell sometimes I think I am down right dumb. but even at that, I can take simple instructions and follow them...

Here is another one of my analogies. You tell someone "If you fill out this form and answer these questions, I will build the a car/truck/SUV for you exactly how you want it." Which would be better? A form that comes back and says "make it the same color as that car I saw on the freeway, make it have a motor like the one that was in that one car by Chevrolet, make it have as many seats as that big suburban thing that Chevy has" OR "make it green, make is have a Chevrolet 6.0 liter v-8 and make it have enough seating for 8 2 in the front, 3 in the middle and 3 in the back row." I personally think that if someone is offering you a opportunity to capture exactly what you want, you would not say things like "make it like this thing" That introduces opportunity for mis inturpertation as the builder goes to that thing and trys to decipher what exactly you want.

Then after making this part clear, they come back later... After this thing is built and want to change things. usually fundamental things... "oops I forgot this." they then don't understand when there are mistakes how this possibly could have happened. All of this would not be near as fustrating is there was any kind of back up from anyone... from my manager, to the top of the list. it should be as simple as. "this is the process, you agreed to it, you did not follow it, you do not get youf change into production." and that should be the end of the conversation. OR. We should embrase that we are a company that needs to change direction at the drop of a hat and develop a group of people that all they do is work with emergency production changes, and since all changes are emergencies, that would be all they did. I believe that this would solve the need of marketing to have somthing go out right now, and also solve the need of the business to build automation to go along with these changes, because after the push into production, this team could hand off the final product to the team that builds the sustaining automation for it to be added to the build.

I don't mean to rant about work on here. but I have to write this crap down or it will just eat me up. and I do feel better now.
