I hate being micromanaged. It kills my productivity.

Amen....

What you doing?

Yes, we all hate it....did you get that subsubtask of the subtask of the task I assigned you 3 femtoseconds ago?

@RememberMe also remember to cc me on all your correspondence with X, in case I need to clarify or take over.

Glad to hear I'm not alone.

@RememberMe "what is a hostile work environment?"

I hate management in general. Just give me my task, roughly tell me when I need to be done and don't expect to hear from me until then

@12bitfloat I used to work in a place like that, sadly I didn't appreciate what I had.

We are doing scrums once per day. I like it as I can get feedback on my direction each morning. It has also helped resolve priorities. By going over what I must do I pick and choose biggest bang for the buck. Thinking out loud has been helpful. My fellow dev ducks...I mean humans are very helpful this way.

@Demolishun I think that's called coordination. And it's different than micromanaging. I really like to keep communications open, review what needs to be changed or a how to adjust directions. That's really not what I'm talking about here.

Check my latest rant, manager demands 1 on 1 "sync up" every day even though we have daily standup
