That's such a great point. The key to finding good employees is finding out what people are truly good at and the key to productivity is letting them do that.

- scarface74 9y agoTo that point, we are operating very lean at my company and we need to setup a CI server soon that integrates with AWS. My manager asked me did I know how to do it. I've copied and modified pre-existing Jenkins build pipelines that someone else created, I know enough on high level to know what I want and I could figure it out, but I am also responsible for architecting a major project. The less mature cowbow me would have taken the CI setup on as an interesting diversion. The older more mature architect me, reached out to a former coworker who specializes in dev ops, asked him was he interested in a short term after hours/weekend contract to set up Jenkins and gave the proposal to my manager. Anything on the periphery that I think I can outsource to managed services or bring in a part time contractor - that I know and trust - i do it.
