Yeah, a lot of top management doesn't get the fact that their job is to create and handle the business/product strategy (where should we go and when).
Middle management handle the tactics (how the fuck can we make it true).
And that's fucking chaos for everyone!
Devs don't know what's really important so they can't put the effort where it counts.
Top management makes technical assumptions based on shit, and shit happens, making the dev work messier.
As they waste effort on technical stuff their business view start to go off. And new features with little add value are rushed because "we gotta do something!"
Management isn't easy.
PS: fuck them!!!!!
Fucking hate when business people says this to me:
- You have no time to do this, we will find somebody else to do it. (EXCUSE ME? how do you know I have no time? If have no time I WILL TELL YOU)
- Your team is too busy, we will outsource that (IF THAT it's a priority, we WILL DO THAT, fuck you, I'll tell you if we need to outsource or not)
- Requirements are too complex to do now. We will think about it and we will tell you, maybe it's just enough to add a column to db (WHAT? WHAT THE FUCK IS too complex? I didn't even see anything we can call requirement, nor speak with relevant people, so how do you fucking know they are complex if you don't know shit about dev and our platform)
Conclusion
It's true, I have no time, because I don't fucking understand what do you want, so I'm running all day and night doing useless things.
