The glamorous life of a software engineering consultant, Pt. 1
Larry O'Brien says: (7:46:07 AM)
I see you're pushing testing and *scribble* out of 1.3.
Client says: (7:46:23 AM)
we need to move forward
Larry O'Brien says: (7:46:26 AM)
Well.... Not really....
Client says: (7:46:29 AM)
testing needs to wait until we get it done
Client says: (7:46:33 AM)
there is alot of things to fix
Client says: (7:46:42 AM)
it doesnt make sense to do test cases when it doesnt work
Larry O'Brien says: (7:46:51 AM)
Just for the record: I disagree with that.
Larry O'Brien says: (7:46:56 AM)
But it's your project...
Client says: (7:47:02 AM)
ok
Client says: (7:47:08 AM)
I have to get it done this week Larry
Client says: (7:47:14 AM)
I cant do that with *Person1* writting tests
Client says: (7:47:25 AM)
fuck the automated test
Larry O'Brien says: (7:47:27 AM)
I understand your perspective
Client says: (7:47:36 AM)
Once I meet my deadline
Client says: (7:47:41 AM)
I will move back to tests
The glamorous life of a software engineering consultant, Pt. 2 (I swear, 1.5 hours later...)
Client says: (9:29:19 AM)
Larry question please
Client says: (9:29:42 AM)
*scribble*
arent we supposed to be showing *scribble*?
Larry O'Brien says: (9:30:21 AM)
Yes
Larry O'Brien says: (9:30:26 AM)
*dammit*
Larry O'Brien says: (9:32:29 AM)
i do not knw why *scribble*
Larry O'Brien says: (9:32:59 AM)
OK, I think I see what the problem is...
Larry O'Brien says: (9:33:13 AM)
I _think_ the problem is that we're seeing this *scribble*
Client says: (9:33:35 AM)
yes but didnt we *scribble* it to the *scribble* also?
Client says: (9:33:46 AM)
we used to show them in the *scribble*
Larry O'Brien says: (9:34:52 AM)
OK, so the *scribble scribble scribble*
Larry O'Brien says: (9:35:59 AM)
So what I'm saying is that to show *scribble* I _think_ in the *scribble* there should be *scribble*
Larry O'Brien says: (9:36:23 AM)
I don't KNOW this is the problem, but I THINK this is the issue
Client says: (9:40:37 AM)
ok I am going to submit this to jira also
Client says: (9:40:43 AM)
I hate finding this things
Client says: (9:40:45 AM)
so late on the game
Larry O'Brien says: (9:41:14 AM)
not to get antagonistic about this issue, but in my opinion, this is why testing is important early, not late
Larry O'Brien says: (9:41:34 AM)
this is why I delaying test development is not what I recommend
Client says: (9:42:28 AM)
sometimes each developer should see this things
Client says: (9:42:32 AM)
I believe in testing
Client says: (9:42:42 AM)
but also that each developer should do things right the first time
Client says: (9:42:47 AM)
I am so sick of findiing problems
Larry O'Brien says: (9:44:02 AM)
I don't want to get into an argument.
