#dayjob

4 posts4 participants0 posts today

It's wild to try to train someone to do your job and realize that, at the base, you are really trying to teach them how to think.

Also like don't tell anyone but I like helping with training the newbies because it makes it clear to me how far I've come. When I started this job I was barely past WRITE !, "HELLO CRUEL WORLD." Now I'm a pretty seasoned programmer.

#dayjob development cycle:

  1. Receive vague JIRA ticket that contains only a title
  2. Randomly guess at requirements, code
  3. Send to QA
  4. Get told I guessed wrong
  5. Think "hmm, I should clarify requirements before coding more"
  6. Send questions to product and QA
  7. crickets
  8. Loop back to 2

From the #dayjob chronicles: If you work in an org where all JIRA tickets just say "do the thing" (with optional misleading title) and nobody ever adds comments, your own tickets can be immaculate and it still does no good because everyone else has learned not to waste time reading the ticket

Code slinger by day, joke-slinger by night. 😏😜
