    “Routine maintenance successfully completed,” kinda feels like uplifting news at this point.

        I mean, I work in the public transport industry and, believe it or not, most project are brought in on time and on budget, but “competent people are competent” doesn’t get rage clicks.

          Too true unfortunately. I like to champion a local public transport project that beat the timeline and came in under budget.

          But when the newspaper doesn’t like the government and wants to stir up controversy they won’t ever discuss all the times it worked perfectly, or try to pretend it didn’t.

          Nothing makes me happier than seeing a plan come together though.
