*job ad* We strongly adhere to TDD

Reality:
Me: yeah but shouldn't we write tests first and then get X finished?
Manager: No takes too much time, we finish X and then we decide if it's worth testing.

    My current job was advertised as 'aggressively agile' (whatever that means).

    Reality - worst management I've ever seen. Not waterfall, not agile. Just some mess that takes 4 times longer than it should to get anything done

    Ron: I found the source of the ticking! It's a pipe bomb!
    Harry and Hermione: Yay!
    (Dumbledore and Snape look at each other)
    (Ticking stops, a huge, fake looking explosion happens. Chunks of puppet flesh fall.)
    (Voldemort pops up)
    Voldemort: Muhuhuhahahaha!
    (Voldemort starts tapping his wand on the stage)
    Voldemort: Voldemort, Voldemort, ooh, Voldy. Voldy, Voldy, Voldemort!
