As I have stated in previous posts, my work group is in trouble. The Program Managers (PM) are not cooperating - they are not opening charge numbers for us to use. My supervisor had uis change to use ALL available numbers - 2.5 hours each only.
I had predicted we would run out. I have only enough charge numbers for next week. I have alerted my supervisor. I suspect he will just put it back on me: "A competent engineer would find charge numbers to use", He said that before when it took months to get a new laptop. It's jusdt an insulting way to say he is not going to escalate it.
Maybe I should ask if I can recycle back through old charge numbers. If I had enough chaqrge4 numbers to get me through to 2013, then I could definitely re-use old chaqrge numbers, because the
2012 data isw not convenient to access. The PMs would not know I had laready charged 2.5 hours to these numbers.
Only 3 members of our group are authorized to use Expense. That leaves 8 of us, that are probably finding themselves in the same situation as me.
I wasn't pasying close enough attention to this because I have been working so hard. The time reporting tool only allows me to see 50 charge numbers at a time. When I deleted the charge numbers I used in November from my "available pool", then I was able to see the end coming.
So what will Monday bring? Will my paychecks just stop in a few weeks (meaning I have to take time off without pay)?

Addendum - I got enough charge numbers to get me through December. In 2012, it is my plan to reuse charge numbers. the fact that I run out of charge numbers at year end correlates with the Post titled "Yikes".
