UNION baby!

I want you on top of me!!

Our PMs and sales-pricks do this with us all the time, none of them have any tech knowledge at all so I usually give them some sort of car/garage metaphor....

"This is the same as calling a garage and asked them how long it takes to fix your car, you haven't told them the problem but you KNOW their estimate is wrong"

They have stopped asking me now, I'm not sure if it's because I'm right or because I'm a sarcastic little shit.

*********

Please forgive the language, even thinking about the sales and PMs gets my back up

This is genius!! I'm so doing this later on today

What are these varchar and ints?!?Never heard of em!

</sarcasm>

I wish I could ++ this twice.

'Opportunity' is a bit of a piss take word in our place, every-time we hear it from a senior manager we laugh

I like it.

Like Taylor Swift says.... Haters gonna hate hate hate hate hate 😃

Wish I could ++ this twice!!

@elleshort was her name

She said something along the lines of "a girl might read this, do you not think girls can code" then she went on to say the original post was sexist.

Sucks when you are left with half a conversation when someone leaves

Liverpool, England 🇬🇧

Would love to see my bosses reaction to this list, I'm guessing he wouldn't continue reading after the first three.

@DarkMukke

Wow! Sarcasm, that's really clever, well done you!!

Check the edit in original post, unfortunately there is no delete post button (that I know of) so I guess we are now stuck with 6, sorry for ruining your day.

Fuck right off Alex, it's down to you that I am asking this question haha

Probably because your son is a late starter, tell him to get a move on! 😃😃

@elleshort

It does sound fair, and that's my point entirely, why is one scenario treated different to the other.

Plus I hardly think my original point is sexist, I was pointing out sexism and double standards not being sexist.

@elleshort

Now now, no one is claiming there are no female devs. This was just a bit of sexism I experienced in work today and wanted to rant, since I'm a dev myslef and my dick of a boss is on Facebook this seems the logical place.

I don't respond to girls crying in the work place the way they would like, if I'm supposed to leave emotion at the door then so are they.

Best. Metaphor. Ever!

I wish I could ++ this twice!!

This is brilliant!! I'm so stealing this.

It perfectly sums up the army of arseholes you meet *SOME* forums. I saw one comment on a forum once that said "you shouldn't be coding if you don't have a computer science degree".

@arminiae

not my words arminiae, the somewhat sexist words of Bob Marley!

I'm having back and forth with a client now, the IT department want a few fields in a CSV and the HR department want to be capturing completely different items, it like they have never spoken to each other before!

Cheers but don't worry; Susan is not a real name.

I'm no expert on circuit boards but shouldn't she be applying the solder to the other side?? Once the blisters on her fingers disappear of course.
