I meant something along the line of non-fiction. Actual IT book. In your example I'd name it Agile in the real world, with a perfect legit cover, and as you go through the chapters, it starts descending into a complete circus and the joke that it can be.
- BizarroLand 2y agoI did some backend and devops stuff for a while and it can be insane. On the one hand, I went to college for many years and spent so much time getting certifications to build my resume. Then when I finally became a sysadmin in a mid/large company, for me to update a linux server I had to ask permission from the cloud group to do so, which took 8 weeks and required 3 rounds of project planning, time estimation, writing dozens of emails and ultimately an escalation over the cloud teams head to the division CIO to ultimately coerce them to provision a new linux server rather than give me appropriate sudo permissions on one I was already "supposed" to manage. Ultimately I ended up getting the job done. And then, other than a couple of intense temporary redeployments as a sharepoint frontend developer, which sucked, 90% of my job was to promptly respond to emails, attend 2-5 30 minute to 1 hour meetings a week where I was asked and said very little, and other than that about 20 minutes of work a day. Playing with my home lab was more intellectually challenging and tech related than my actual tech job, and I probably spent more actual time doing that than actual time doing actual work in my real job.
