I heard the following phrase no fewer than three times at a recent tech conference: “Bad Programmers will move heaven and earth to do the wrong thing”. The first time I heard it I thought that it was kind of catchy, maybe I even chuckled a bit with the others
But watch, they’ll turn around and wonder why I won’t interface with the
squadroncompany function, why I don’t care about going out for drinks with my coworkers, and why I never buy into the whole 'we’re a familyso you should give more of yourself to the corp than you do your ACTUAL family’nonsense after all of that. It’s a contemptuous ‘better-than-thou’ complex, everywhere, and it’s tiresome.
