*Jeff Forbez (internet star on this blog) and a resource from India named Punkaj are having a discussion on Master Data*
-
Forbez:
Punkaj, it doesn't really matter what data we use in this set... we just want to ensure that the system is pulling the data properly.
-
Punkaj:
I understand.
-
*Author's Note - He clearly did not understand*
-
Forbez:
We can just use rough data...
-
*Author's Note -We work with a colleague named Raphael and he is referred to as 'Raph'*
-
Punkaj:
I understand.
-
Forbez:
Great:
-
Punkaj:
Do you want me to talk to Raphael?
-
Forbez:
What?
-
Punkaj:
To get some of his data...
-
Forbez:
What?
-
Punkaj:
We need raph's data to use the test...
-
Forbez:
No we don't...
-
Punkaj:
You just said we did...
-
Forbez:
No! We need rough data...
-
Punkaj:
I know!!
-
Forbez:
Noooo, rouuugh data. It is a Canadian expression. Rough data.
-
Punkaj:
What does it mean?
-
*At this point of the conversation I am laughing hysterically on the other side of the cubicle wall. I am out of sight, but still audible*
-
Forbez:
Well, rough data means data that is not yet perfect... and may not be relevant to the real world scenario.
-
Punkaj:
So this data will be false...
-
Forbez:
Rough data is not correct...
-
Punkaj:
I snuck in a competitor's product... can you get me a glass to pour it in?
-
Forbez:
Yes.
