Personally, I've had a few software engineering jobs in the past and the distribution of requirements for time tracking is basically bimodal:

* A company is legally required to do time tracking. They usually have a shitty excel sheet to fill out (and every fills in the defaults), or at best a single "check in"/"check out" button that someone coded 10 years ago and still works.

* A company does time tracking to bill 7 different customers for the 12 different tickets each engineer is assigned. The software used to track this was made by 30 full-time engineers and requires a 200-page manual to administer. New employees have to take a 2h course to understand how to fill in their time sheet.

A 2h course is an understatement.

I think I had a week long training for ConnectWise to do all the modules.

Well, that was for basic functionality.

How to book vacation time is extra.

I wonder if this is the College in Breaking Away. Great movie.

Fun fact - the quarry in the movie is real and in fact a local swimming hole. Over the years though they’ve really been cracking down on trespassing.

I believe they have filled it in now :/

Wow, I did not know this and am honestly a bit emotional finding this out. Those quarries were iconic and a magical way to spend an evening at a time in my life when I felt absolutely free, for better or worse.

On the bright side, Bloomington has other hidden gems (for now) that elicited similar feelings.

It is the same.

Probably. I know my university has a custom built time tracking website that relies on student ID cards, it was likely built by students as well.
