Presenter: "Hi everyone, I'd like your feedback and suggestions on this new tool we're developing."This gives me the perfect opportunity to introduce my 2.7 readers (hey, the number's growing at least) to my Slogan for Life: Whatever... Oh well.
Me: "Ok. Well, that particular field doesn't make much sense to me. Can we reword it to be clearer?"
Presenter: "Nope, sorry, we don't have time to make changes to this new tool."
Someone Else: "You know, that section there will take a lot of work on our part to complete. Could we do it this way instead to save us a bunch of time?"
Presenter: "Nope, sorry, that's too complicated to implement. We don't have the time."
Presenter: "Well, thanks everyone for your input, I greatly appreciate it."
(Someday I'm gonna get a tee-shirt made of that. It will say "Whatever." on the front and "Oh well." on the back.)
haha, yeah I feel that way all the time. I look at some code that a co-worker has written and it is complete crap. Poor interfaces for my code(my main concern) and resource wasteful. I mention this to the co-worker and I get a big oh well, or it isn't that bad.
