Ok, so, we've got two DBAs, a technical architect, and you'll be the applications developer - anyone missing from the project plan?
Yes, we don't yet have a project manager
Hmm.. well, we don't really need one of those for this project do we? Bit of an unnecessary expense...
But we've got no plan besides your handwritten notes, nobody knows what their roles are and the project is due to last 6 months! We have to have a project manager, surely?
Well, since you feel so strongly about it, YOU can write the plan as well as assign roles, and we still won't need a project manager!
*sigh*
