My job role

Last Friday I was looking for something on the shiny new Sharepoint system (it's a Microsoft thing for sharing documents) and found the person "who calls himself my manager" had created a "Roles and Definitions" document. Naturally I was amazed that he had NOT informed me of its existence but when I read it I found it departed from reality shortly after the third word. So, I asked him as below.

F,

I have been looking on sharepoint and found the Roles - Definitions document. I don't get the bit for "Minion" staff (below). Who are the integrators? Have things changed that Minions are required to do packaging now too. Packaging currently do this here.

1.1 "Minion" Engineer
The main responsibilities of the "Minion" Engineers are:
Updates SharePoint accurately and in timely fashion
Packages Applications to the required standards as per the Integrators instructions
Test as per the Integration document


Thanks,

Mike

His reply was:


"Thanks for the information. The item in question has been resolved and a newer version of the document uploaded to the sharepoint server.

Many Thanks

Flakey"
