Software engineers spend a lot of time gaining skills for interviews by practicing leet code problems and perfecting resumes.
Once they finally ge...

Seriously?
Notice the title #humor :)! I wrote it similar to the voice of the TechLead. He is always on the edge between satire, reality and cringe.
Yes! It is hard to tell. Often times he hides pretty good advice between jokes. So it's like...wait is he serious???
I figured as much.
Now it makes sense
Hope it made you laugh, just a bit :).
Haha, yeah I chuckled
😁🤣👌
Especially "avoiding meetings"!😂
Or it will happen to you, what it happened to me with 4-hour daily meetings.
Oh gosh...I have had a few 4-hour and 6-hour meetings :(...They are terrible.
Pro tip - count up how many people are tied up in that, find out the "billable rate" the company uses (even non-agency companies often have such a number) -- or barring that, guesstimate the average hourly rate per person in the meeting -- and multiply the two, multiplied by the number of hours per meeting, then by some interval (month, quarter, year).
Then present that number to the bean counters and manager over whoever is scheduling such meetings.
Most people don't like it when someone is spending thousands of dollars a month tying people up on things that are questionably productive. ;)
For a minute I thought you refer the free sample of my book :P
I remember when I was in a meeting, I just enjoying my coffee and not paying attention😂
and/or you could bring your workspace (if you are using a laptop) into the meeting room and work on the project while the meeting is going on. Multitasking to the max
For number 2 I can spot a bad project from a mile away but I dont get much choice in what project I get to do. 😭😂 Haha.. oh if only. Like if structure really kills a project. I stayed on a bad project out of choice to learn. It was so useful what I have learned, but now I am on a new project that is also bad ; I will be finding out soon for my self how plausible it is for me to continue on this bad project. Even today I learned people have tried to do this project many times. Anyway as I usually say only time and tomorrow can tell unfortunately haha 😪. If it is true I will make a case for me to get off it.
As for how bad a defect is ? I fail miserably to tell ! I can tell if a defect will take a certain amount of time now but I feel like I should be doubling it for more tricky ones..
Just Excellent
The TechLead inspires again. We all should bask in the TechLeads glory 😆😆
This post was meant to be a combination of humor and good advice! And saying no to projects and meetings can save lives!
Woah! Sounds about right.
The perfectionist in me tries to work on no. 7 as much as possible and then my brain moves much faster than my hands
