Is fixing bugs awesome? Because a guy who can fix bugs for 30 days straight is the most valuable engineer in the building, but using this rubric, he'd be fired, because I don't think anyone considers fixing bugs awesome. I wouldn't want to work somewhere where everyone is rushing to impress the boss with "awesome" features, when the rest of the product isn't getting love.
- diwu1989 14y agoI fixed 100 bugs in a single milestone at my current job last year, it just took a lot of time, nothing that demanded too much brain power. It was still recognized as awesome because the average on the team was 30 or so.
- ageyfman 14y agoThat IS awesome. That's my point, if you don't get it, and awesome is really just the "sizzle", then you're losing out on really solid people who are more into quality than fashion.
