What chance?

There are so many wonderful things in this SMH story about the ATO tax system it’s hard to fit it all in.

The bizarre
Who amongst us is comforted by the knowledge there is a Australian/New Zealand standard for font size?

The unkind
The fact staff can’t read their screens because the font is so small is called “a human error” by the Tax Office?

The mundane
A government project is $200 million over budget, 2 years late and still not working. Since when have do governments deliver on time?

The serious
In an environment where development becomes a political football. When it’s so disorganised it can’t achieve a basic level of core functionality. What were the chances anyone from security got a word in edgeways?
