Does the government even know what the internet is?
I got an email this morning from CRA that my notice of assessment was available. I went to go get it and ran into this page! Do they realize that the internet doesn't close at midnight?
To add insult to injury I didn't get to this page until AFTER entering my login information, and answering additional security questions. If you're going to have operating hours for a website, at least at least tell me BEFORE you make me log in! 🤣
@jason_the_concurror My "favourite" thing about CRA web pages is that many of them aren't operational outside of business hours. In what world does it make sense that I can only login and use a service between 8:30-4:30...and not even in my local time! It's always based on Eastern Time because Ottawa.
I'm convinced there's someone at CRA who's landed themselves a really great contract. They simply play tetris all day because they've managed to convince somebody that the website needs a person to manually "move bits" around.
The only real work they ever did was to break the website so nobody asked, "hey, how come it still works after you've gone home?"
@jason_the_concurror I was just complaining that the IRS also closes parts of their website at night. So bizarre.
@Latkes
Ha! Well, I guess I'm glad it's not just us! Seriously though wft?
Someone had to actually go out of their way to break the website. That was someone's actual job. Bizarre indeed!
@jason_the_concurror In communist US.. the computers have better working hours than you
