Boss: Write a program to generate a report using some data from an existing one.
Me: OK, I will look into doing a POC
Boss: Also it would be stored in Mongo so all the data is queryable
Me: OK I will generate the file first
Boss: But it needs to be in DB, couldn't you just upload it when done?

This discussion goes on for 30 mins+ preventing me from finishing release related work...

IF THE FCKING POC/REPORT ITSELF IS WRONG OR IS MISSING INFORMATION/CAN'T BE GENERATED WHY THE FUCK DOES WHERE IT'S STORED MATTER?!!!!!!!!!!! WHY ARE TOY EATING TIME ON THESE TINY DETAILS THAT DON'T MATTER AT THE MOMENT.

FUCKING GET YOUR PRIORITIES STRAIGHT. YES EVERYTHING IS DOABLE... JUST NOT NOW.....

    Always ask (even the tiniest POC) in writing, could be simple bullet list, then discuss. Incorporate the changes again in written spec.

    Put it inside your project folder.

    @ajit555 this is the "discussion".... I think when he sees a project its like a big giant rock.

    When I see a project it's a bunch of small rocks that are then put together. And there's an order in which ones should be "found" first.

    @billgates when you ask him to write, you are forcing him to break his big giant rock project to a bunch of small rocks, in order, for you.

    @ajit555 which he did but then he wants to discuss all of them like they're equally important and needs to be all done at the same time

    @billgates well, for things outside the domain of logic, you can be as creative as hell in this situation :)
