?? Not in 30 years have I run into such a thing.
Yeah more like has shitty coworkers.
That’s the most generous reading. The alternate reading I’ll leave for OP to deduce.
Or he constantly needs help with easy problems that a quick stackoverflow with 30k upvotes could fix. And he doesn't remember anything after you've showed him twice
It's been a week and my CEO still hasn't responded my email asking for scope clarification for a project he asked me to do...
Nothing ever gets done in the second half of December.
More like between thanksgiving and the near year.
I find we're most productive in far years.
You guys are reminding me of all the planning crap and responding I didn't get done before the holiday break and really need to do.
It's also Christmas time
I quit my company a week ago because as a company of 13 people the communication at all levels was so poor compared to my previous job working with over 20 and several departments. I’m not usually one to judge people’s degrees, but our boss has a biosciences and GIS degree and somehow wandered their way into software management and has the biggest superiority complex I’ve ever seen. These people plague the software development landscape so, my condolences for your CEO who is probably too busy looking at golf clubs and scheduling tee times while writing up an email about how hard executive management works to get back to you.
I check my email once per day, then I close it. If you need me, I’m on slack, or walk up to me.
