I think I care a little bit too much about date standards…

@reedyn Hey, it's good having standards about who you go on dates with... Oh, not that kind of date, right? 😜At work, a colleague and I were finally able to convince our supervisor (a Boomer) to use ISO8601 to date our drawings, instead of the blasted US format with two-digit year! 🤬 It took freaking years to break his reluctance down. He's a great guy and a fount of knowledge, but he's so set in his ways...

@normandc That's great! My personal worst is when people use the US date standard with the wrong separator (they should always use /). Hyphens should only be used for for ISO8601

@reedyn What I hate with the US date standard, people don't always follow it strictly. It's a crapshoot figuring out if the year is first or last, since it's only 2 digits. You can't go wrong with ISO8601!We've been stuck with an US-made ERP system that only supports US date format because, nothing else exists, right? 🙄Bought and implemented in 2009, the company has outgrown it, and we're finally going with something else this year. Woohoo! \o/
