There is this salesman right across from me that always brags about how rich his parents are and how lucky us tech guys are for having such an easy job. He told me one day that he was going to quit and make his own software company currently having no developing experience at all because "I've seen some of these developers. If those guys can do it, it'll be a breeze." I convinced him that the best language to learn in order to make your own websites/apps is Linux command line. Hilariously enough, the other 2 devs heard me say that and when Glenn the sales douche followed up with them one of them told him "Yeah, If you think you're really going to be quick with it then Linux will be your best bet, but if you have trouble just learn C++ instead and you'll still be able to make websites." Best of luck on your new Venture, you spoiled jizz stain.

    If you gathered all of the world's salesmen together in one room, even together they'd still be about ten IQ points short of a moron

    Ugh, fucking sales... Sales guys always think they're sly and top shit. I had a sneaky bastard today try to circumvent the PM and have me do a direct call with the client for his new website. I called him and out and said we have PMs for a reason, dumbass. So idiots like you can't waste my time when I have coding to do.. I don't have time to talk for 2 hours on the phone just to disappoint a client you oversold to as to what we can realistically do.

    Also, what you said about how they think what we do is so easy. So true.
    It's sad knowing these idiots make more $ (only because my company values the wrong things). Some of them seem like they didn't even pass high school. 🙄
