Most teams have encountered this basic scenario: Your application sends out a periodic report to a specific person in the company.

Over Engineered is all about those things that bug you but you never get a chance to "solve." Today's episode is about the dreaded "status" column. This is another topic that most developers will hit over and over. You have a model. You need to track the status.
