Fellow developer likes to request changes on pull requests to do major refactors on untouched code or change functionality which is outside the scope of the ticket.
Manager doesn't work on the codebase and doesn't care. This blocks our work and we often have to submit to their demands.
Feels very micromanagy even tho we are all experienced.
Asking for advice and a friend. (mostly a friend)

I wish I had the power to fire the user experience designer who makes the worst UX.

Boss told us to make a tickets app.

Tickets will have to_be_completed_by date

Devs in our team allowed that to be in the past. Because our manager consistently says he wants stuff done like yesterday!

F*ck you CircleCi

Once had a manager who would say things like "you're odd" and didn't have the decency, and was paid double. Some people just step on others to make themselves look 'taller'. Had to leave that negative space immediately. Got a 40% pay rise at new company. Win!

I give up. Some of these pull requests will never get approved.

Anyone else use their 'personal development time' to get a quick nap?

"Yeh not gonna commit that because other will think I worked on it and send questions my way, I rather live in peace"

Meeting in calander: 1hr
Actual time taken: 1.5hr

Manager: "we are slow in delivery.. "

Product people always have something to say in a meeting 🤦‍♀️, regardless of beneficial or not. They just need to speak. It's like they have an urge inside to pee, and they have to let it go in a meeting. Always.

Will your work pay for github copilot?

Called someone Rat accidentally,
his name was Matt.

When companies say they migrated to microservices, they actually mean: Monoliths deployed in a microservices architecture

My manger get 4 promotions
While you're stuck in the same place,
Time to move?

This virtual recap 2021 year event could have been an email

Company: people are not taking holidays, let's have after work party midweek so they have to take a day off.

Employees: (next day after late night party) I'm calling in sick

Cal invite: scum meeting

Not sure to accept or decline

Tired of learning new languages every few months. Where am I going wrong? Asking for a friend

Want to take a moment to thank covid for helping us work remotely more easily.

You're a programmer, how do you even talk to someone as a human on a date?

Do people with brand new phones and no case radiate arrogance?

When other devs don't address the comments on the pull request and say its "requirement"

Unpopular opinion: Having a beard helps convince others that you are a senior engineer

My mind:"simple as"
My keyboard: "simple ass"

My manger: 😲

How do you stay happy, content?

If anyone says it will take a day, it actually means a month.
1week means 1month
1month means 3months
3months means 1year (will take some for the BA and Product Manager to realise actual the problem they are trying to solve)
1year means you won't be working on project, they'll outsource it.

Build failed

"The phoenix project" book

So you want full stack engineers to: design, do UX, create front end, build backend and deploy it in your mono repo stupid manual deployment "kubernetes cluster", add monitoring alerting manually, review others PR, QA our own apps and features, manually sync to Production, use VPN otherwise we cannot connect to anything, 2factor auth, do SRE, architecture diagrams, demo, run agile ceremonies, and learn a legacy coding language which was never mentioned in the job description. Did I miss anything?

How does Devrant make any money?
