re: #190 itellu3times

Me dinosaur too and still at it, so I can tell you that what has changed is not just that efficiency doesn’t count, what they want is lousy work, not good work, not great work. If it just barely gets by, so you have to spend seven hours a day keeping the plates spinning, that’s what they like, that’s what they demand. So how do I keep going? I dunno. I give the customer what he wants, I guess, and sometimes fix up a thing or two while he’s not looking, but it’s still a battle.

My contact for my Kaiser work that I do off and on says he’s never dealt with a more detailed and knowledgeable programmer in the last 10 years. He’s a project leader, he’s 32 years old.

‘nuff said?
