Didnt see this at the time!
The most creative , productive places have pool tables, no time clocks, beer kegs,
hooters giirls, whiteboard walls,
workout rooms, mandatory on the clock drinking and goofing off..... and salary pay.
And everybody that wworks there does a good job for the company even when nno one
is looking.
WAYYYY more productive than
this crap... what just slipped up on ppl
(sigh! those were the days)
or slipped RIGHT BY ppl in the last 10 years was now even the average obsolete
eee pc netbook has enough batt power storage, and 3g connectivity to video , audio
keystroke and avi/screengrab everything your doing at all times.
A cheap smart phone droid and a justin.tv account will archive 24 hours a day
on the flash media server everything all day long if you want.
Unless you went amish like 20 years ago and stopped going to the dmv your face
is your fingerprint and ur in the system!
'the tao of programming:'
6.1
When managers hold endless meetings, the programmers write games. When
accountants talk of quarterly profits, the development budget is about
to be cut. When senior scientists talk blue sky, the clouds are about
to roll in.
Truly, this is not the Tao of Programming.
When managers make commitments, game programs are ignored. When
accountants make long-range plans, harmony and order are about to be
restored. When senior scientists address the problems at hand, the
problems will soon be solved.
Truly, this is the Tao of Programming.
6.2
Why are programmers non-productive?
Because their time is wasted in meetings.
Why are programmers rebellious?
Because the management interferes too much.
Why are the programmers resigning one by one?
Because they are burnt out.
Having worked for poor management, they no longer value their jobs.
