Ok, wage review is coming up, and I need some ammo from the experts!!
I have been designing using MDT and IV for six years at my present job. Along with this I have been writing macros for the company (see attached pic). Most of the macro’s I have implemented search through access data bases pulling the information required and load it into the macro’s form and then on to the dwg and iam, ipt, idw’s and any required excel spread sheets. Also the macro’s work the other way as far as pulling information from the IV files and MDT dwgs and putting it into the database.
If the company had to hire an outside source to create the macro’s, what would they have spent?
Some of these macro’s take an all day job and turn it into a 15 min data entry. No joke, in the last year and a half , the macro’s have logged a 1.6 million dollars worth of through put.
Yes, the macro’s load the qty and cost of the job into a private database I have been keeping for just this purpose.
So where do I go from here? Any thoughts?
