How have we taken the most autistic job and tacked a stupid, worthless, autistic unfriendly process on to it? (the answer of course is capitalism)
I want to quit but I can’t get another job and even if I could it would just be more of this shit.
Agile is great when it is used as a tool in combination with many tools. Agile is quite literally the great Satan if it is used as a biblical text where no other texts are needed.
I’m struggling with this in my job currently, new boss has come in and has a specific Extra Special Blend of his own Agile processes and these MUST be used. All other processes that people were using alongside to help fill in all the massive gaps in workflow that agile leaves behind now are ILLEGAL and we MUST do it THIS way.
He brought a hammer to this job and everything is exactly the same nail.
It’s infuriating.
The job market is bad right now even for tech though so here we sit in “Agile Is The Truth And The Light”
