Nice blog. I read first two posts and I must say I've been through same experience and I can relate with some of these characters.
It was also around this time I had become something of an “important” figure around my office. For anyone who has been “that guy” in a small team, the guy who gets three emergencies thrown at him from 3 different people in the course of a single minute, the guy who gets assigned the bugs noone else can figure out or reproduce, the guy, who when noone else has an answer, is turned to for help, you’ll know what I mean when i say “important”.
- My project manager(non-technical) promised client to deliver the complete project in three days. He didn't consulted us about the expected development time and it was a month work to be true. We two developers worked non stop for 58 hours to develop an untested ugly version and hoped for best. Fortunately, it worked well. Never looked back at that code and it is still being used since last 4 years. Even I don't know how.
- manuscreationis 15y agoHaha, I can relate to that, for sure. Keep reading, there's a part you'll definitely relate to, near the end of "The New Office". We had a guy who constantly oversold and overpromised, causing us endless pains... Thanks for reading! Be sure to pass it along if you've enjoyed it.
