The key is to learn the left wing nutcase method, give a damn with your right hand and take it back with your left, then you can just keep right on giving a damn and bragging about how compassionate you are. If anyone points out that you keep taking back the damn that you just gave call them names like “intolerant”, “uncaring”, “racist” etc.
“My guess is the company has incompetent managers. Bringing new people on to a project that is behind schedule and in a crisis doesn’t mean higher productivity. Neither does longer hours.”

Either of those sounds wrong other than the fact that sometimes a new person sees something that the old hands are looking past but that is a faint hope. Longer hours are all wrong, I spent two decades running my own business which involved troubleshooting machinery after working more than a decade for others including Uncle Sam doing electronic, electrical and mechanical repair. Some of the best advice I ever got is that if you haven’t identified the problem within two hours take a break, have a cup of coffee, talk about the weather, when you come back you often see what you had been missing. If you keep on pushing past the fatigue point you may spend all day looking right past what is under your nose.
I can tell you haven’t worked in software development.
Off to the FEMA camps with them.
Truly, I have not, what was your first clue;>)
Your lack of experience qualifies you for a management job, but you’ll have to lose the attitude about not working people to death. Come up with an idea that coders who take bathroom breaks get fired, and you will be in an executive suite in no time.
Great, I have always wondered what it is like to be one of those top executives who lacks the applicable background required to distinguish between his nether anatomy and a mineshaft. Where do I apply?
