I work with UK devs and them calling every little fix "win" makes me cringe ngl.

"Oh I fixed that issue yesterday. That's a small win".

Cringe all around.

Your lack of happiness is cringe

@jestdotty you are more cringe than me no cap ngl fr fr

I'm with the blokes on this

They're not saying it for you, they're saying it for management and other important people so they look productive and are trusted to self organise

You have to play the game in the corporate world, especially in software.
How else are non technical people supposed to know about the "wins" the expensive dev team are making every sprint?

@MammaNeedHummus it doesn't negate the point that it's cringe.

@MammaNeedHummus any word longer than three letters will confuse and enrage the management 😂

Don't worry, we don't all say it.

I never really thought about this, but "fix" probably invokes a sense of less-than-adequate performance. Somebody made a mistake. We're solving problems that should not have to be solved. I think I'll adopt "win" in the future.

@lorentz embracing the cringe, are ya?

do you live in the uk?

@kiki nope. but i work with em.

In a world of darkness and negativity I would rather be the light, than to be insecure about how an immature person thinks of me.

@Demolishun the hell are u talking about?

People saying “cringe” and “ngl” all the time ruffles my feathers.

@adamjkeith your sus cringe no cap fr fr
