Over time we actually found him to be more of a -2x engineer, but thats another story
edit: reminded me of the old joke
A programmer gets sent to the store by his wife. His wife says, “Get a gallon of milk, and if they have eggs, get a dozen.”
The programmer returns home with 12 gallons of milk and says, “They had eggs.”
- monsieurbanana 2y agoThe fool, he should have gotten 13 gallons of milk
- stavros 2y agoAh, the "and" ruins that joke for me by signifying a separate clause. I think the original is: > A programmer gets sent to the store by his wife. His wife says, “Get a gallon of milk. If they have eggs, get a dozen.”
- chrismorgan 2y ago> more of a -2x engineer You just needed to find another one like him, and bam, +4×. (It is actually conceivable that two bad engineers could mostly cancel each other out, if they can occupy each other enough, but it’s not the most likely outcome.)
- glxxyz 2y ago'Antiwork' - every hour they work uses up more than an hour of other engineers' time in questions, meetings, and later fixes.
- steveBK123 2y agoCorrect - they do bad work quickly which requires 2x the time on repairs
