WBS & Gantt Chart Food Lab - 10/20/16

Today was the day that our group had to come together and create the final WBS that we would follow to complete the assigned task at hand... To go and get food for everybody. First we started off by comparing WBS charts. At first it was just Carlos and I that had it completed. William had not shown up yet and Alex and Joel didn't complete theirs. Mine looked something like this...

Carlos had more of a in depth list of the whole project which he included the minutes of each step which I didn't. Mine was a lot broader chart form of the WBS that he made. At this point the group was having difficulties deciding which to focus on until William came in with his.

His was great because it was a great in-between of both Carlos and I's WBS. So we decided to focus on Williams. Before we completely finished finalizing the WBS we had already decided where we were going to go which was a big no-no to Mrs. Vestal. She had us decide another place to go. After the finalization of the WBS we went to work. We had to first decide where we were going to eat. After only 3 or 5 minutes of communication we had already planned to call up a pancake place called Andy's Pancake and Steak house. While Carlos had them on the phone getting them to list the order we were taking notes on the cost... We then decided that we wanted to get. Some of us including Joel and I only had cards, while some of us only had a larger for of currency other than 5 dollars. So it was settled that Carlos and William would throw in a 20 each and the rest would pay our cost. We decided them that William and I were going to go get the food and I would be driving.

It didn't take William and I but only 10 minutes maximum to get to the Pancake house and about 5 minutes to pay and collect the food. They were very nice people. But William and I forgot an important part of the order... the receipt. But it was a pretty hefty bill and when she said the cost it was stuck in my head, $32.50. After only about another 10 minute drive William and I were welcome by the rest of our hungry looking group. The area was nice and clean, I was impressed! We then all sat down and all enjoyed our delicious pancakes!

After that nice meal we all cleaned up and that ended our successful first of its kind EGR Breakfast! Later I Got to working on a more accurate WBS and the Gantt chart that goes with. I used the excel program to create the Gantt chart because I felt like it was the most effective and easy way to create it. Although I couldn't change the cell size for different time intervals I did however use a shading feature in the cell to make it look like it was taking up less time. So here is my refurbished WBS and my newly made Gantt Chart... Enjoy!
