Why is Skype installed on my pc

Anyone else gets PTSD from estimating time expenses on projects you know nothing about, no basic design, specification, or anything besides “this page of the app is called the request handler, it handles requests by other users.” Oh really? Like what kind of requests? What can they request? Who can approve those requests? Etc... Is this normal, or am I just at an unprofessional company with fully incompetent PMs?

Boss: Hey man, can you do an extra couple of hours today to finish [...] up? I just talked to [person he knows is driving me home that day] and he said he would do them! Can I count on you?

[person driving me home]: F*ck no! He hasn't asked me yet.

And mini rant over...

I am a software developer. My boss has given me a task now to crack a certain software. 😥

Especially when you are working under a non-technical project manager :/

: dont touch me imma wiZaRD

They:Why didn't you come up with this solution 2 years ago?

Me: The framework on which the new solution is proposed DID NOT exist 2 years ago.

This industry is fun!

If you search hard enough you’ll find where they copied the code from.

"Say my name...."

why programmers like cooking: you peel the carrot, you chop the carrot, you put the carrot in the stew. You don't suddenly find out that your peeler is several versions behind and they dropped support for carrots in 4.3

I love it when rather than fix the bug that is causing the faulty data you write a bot on a schedule to clean up the faulty data. It's like a bot battle who can mess up / clean up the data the fastest. Unless your clean up bot has a bug then you are just F'ed.
