in the meeting today I pointed out its difficult to trace the tasks they have 'derived' (generated) to the original functions. They shared a screen showing an excel doc they claimed to be the traceability matrix. Excel had a warning at the top saying the worksheet had bad formulas etc... and it was obvious they'd used an LLM to create it because it is completely wrong but has fancy formatting in the cells. I pointed out the first line is wrong, they then jumped in and said "we didn't get time to fix the spreadsheet before the meeting" Bro if this is your traceability matrix why does it need formulas and why is it wrong? Fuck these people, utter charlatans.

me: what level is this job? The lowest tier? them: yes me: it says they do analysis, that's a higher-order task requiring a lot of experience. them: no, their job title is analyst so they will do analysis. me: you created the job title before you wrote the tasks. Can you not see why this is a problem? me: you say this is the lowest tier job, but you've mapped it to the second highest tier of employee. them: the traceability matrix is wrong. me: this whole thing smacks of gender! (I flip over the table)
